I have acquired a couple of NOS synchros for these early boxes,
113 311 247A part number
but the thin nature of the gear face
means that the taper is often incorrect for a new synchro.
For this reason,
more often than not I replace both first and second gear with the later parts.
I use 113 311 269A for both first and second gears.
