I'm almost ready to drop in the motor into the Victor. It's been several months since the last post so I'll fill you in. I'm putting an 81 B21F with a BW-55 trans into a 1958 Vauxhall Victor. There is a few things I discovered I need now that the motor is on the stand. The first thing is the complete speedometer gear and cylindrical "thing-a-ma-bob" it fits into. When I went to pull out the cable, the tip of the old cable broke off inside and I can't get it out now. As far as I can tell, the only way of saving it would be to cut it and that would ruin it. The 1975-1982 Borg-Warner Type 55 trans is a little different than the more common AW trans that replaced it. The cable pinion is a different size. If you have a junk BW trans lying around, I could use the part. Just get me a price.
Also I could use a spare distributer for parts. I noticed my vacuum advance is froze up. I am almost afraid to take it apart to clean it without another to use for spare parts.
