The transmission will bolt on to the motor, but the transmission mount is different, and the driveshaft for the O/D trans is considerably shorter.

My car has a '77 chassis and O/D transmission, but a '69 1296 motor. I needed a '74 flywheel to mate the engine and transmission correctly. '74 had the smaller crank bolts but the right clutch diameter. So I think there will be no issues going from '75 to '76.

A friend in Texas needs a trans for his '76 Spitfire 1500 and
found an OD trans from a '75. As both are behind a 1500
is this a direct bolt in or might the mounts or drive shaft
be different ?
