Thanks Tim- I had seen the specs on the ratios and would definitely want the lower OD ratio of the W58. Just wondering how to tell one from the other in a parts yard. I used to have a BMW 2002 Tii and swapped the original 4-speed with an OD 5-speed from a 320i, and it transformed the car. Better trans in general, but the OD made it much more drivable on the highway. I figure it would to the same for the JH. Also had a TR6 with a rare electric OD. Guess I am drawn to OD's.
