Hi
Will an earlier type F'bed outer cover work on a Commando AMC gearbox ?

The outer cover on mine isn't threaded & had the cable entry in the wrong spot for a Featherbed
 
Not sure what you mean by "isn't threaded"
What threads should there be on an outer cover (other than inspection cover screws)?

AMC Gearbox 1967 Atlas

I've recently read that the early Atlas's had a "N" prefix before the gearbox serial number and then it was changed to " NA" somewhere around 1966. Does anybody know what changes were made if any? Reason I ask is that I may need a new case and was wondering if the internals of a "NA" will fit...

Some early AMC outer had their cable entry hole threaded for clutch cable adjustment ...
and the entry cable hole position changed between commando and featherbed ....

The cover will fit
But the reason they moved the clutch cable entrance hole on a commando was to gain cable clearance
 
Dose anyone have any idea on how to lighten the clutch up on a laid down TTi Gearbox?
It uses the triumph lifter on the inspection cover just feels really heavy compared to a standard norton laid down gearbox
