Some 73-76 ish 710 SSS coupes have the 1.1 5th gear box but you carnt tell till you drive them.
I have not found any way to work out what gear box is what a lot of the time I usally write on them what they are from. Yes these are the short gear box . I've found the parts books/Fiches dont allways list everything.But are a very good help.
