Re: overdrive
I don't think the 1500 gearbox will fit an 1850. Somebody more knowledgable will be able to confirm this.

Re: overdrive
In a word no...
The only bit that is the same is the mainshaft...well slight exageration but the gears layshaft and input shaft are all wrong.
If you want an 1850 o/d box I have one we can maybe do a deal with?
PM me...I'm in west london.
