It'd be nice if the gearbox I bought had those internals in it, but unfortunately it is only the casing with the protrusions on that is similar!

Maybe I need to buy myself a Hewland!

I've decided to clean out my spare gboxes and one of them is the Hewland/Wooler I described earlier.

Would you confirm if the 5th is straight through (as per your former assessment on an other forum, cf. below)

or indeed an "overdrive" 0.80 ratio ?
