Quite so Colin. Not sure it helps Rich with his question though.
He wants all the gears to be higher, it pulls away in 2nd, hardley uses 1st, and feels like it needs another gear when in 4th,so obviously needs a higher final drive.You could fit an overdrive, it has been done on a number of vintage cars, but not enough space on a seven without serious hacking.
Mgb units have been fitted to Austin 12/4s , you can’t get a higher final drive for those.
