Series 3 Over drive, out with the Fairies or going roaming?

The speedo doesn't get altered (according to Ashcroft anyway).

No doubt you're right about the mountains though!

It makes sense for me to consider because of the V8, but certainly I'd dread the idea of it hooked up to the 2.5NA. [If anything that needs an underdrive the way it's powered right now!]

Yes, another brain fart moment... getting old stinks.

You'll find varous posts by people who have fited the Ashcroft and others who have overdrives. The Ashcroft works well but it still leaves you with a 4 speed box (or 8 as you have low range) but the OD gives you a 6 speed box as you get OD3 and OD4 and you still have low range. I use the 4 to 4thOD change a lot as it is just around 40-45 mph which covers a lot of A road driving..
