Overdrive gearbox mounting plate identification

Here's your starter for ten:
This is what I THOUGHT I had.... from the left: non O/D, original D-Type O/D, currently available D-type replacement mounting, and the separate pic is of a J type mounting plate.
However: you may know better. Any thoughts? Note the differing positions of the overdrive rear mount holes in relation to those for the chassis, so they can't be for the same car, but the non O/D mount appears to allow for approximately the same degree of movement depending on which pair of holes is used...

From left to right;

TKC1407  Spitfire 1500 overdrive

147629 Vitesse/GT6 D type overdrive

148897 Spitfire D type overdrive

There are no non overdrive gearbox mounting plates in that picture.

And the plate in the seperate picture is one of our part number G38, J type overdrive in a Vitesse/GT6 (not a Triumph part number because it's not a Triumph part).

Thanks Dave, I've had in a drawer for years and never knew the exact application. As I said, it's what I THOUGHT I had, so now I know!
What's currently available for fitting a J-type single rail box to a Herald?

Yup thats what I have , you also have to make part of the transmission tunnel detachable or it ain't going to go in or come out.

Dave, do you stock a clutch plate for a 6.5 clutch cover with spitfire 1500 fine spline input shaft?
