gearbox..

[aaronc190]

what gearboxs will fit a 2.0l 8vavle or redtop??

[Nova_Tek]

8v boxes as standard were F16.

The XEV' had F18 boxes AFAIK

Redtops had F20

LET's had F28

Think they will fit one another with the correct flywheels IIRC

But using a lesser spec gearbox with a higer rated engine could mean dead boxes sooner than later.

[aaronc190]

what about the f13 and f10??

[Welsh Dan]

To fit an F10 or F13 you'll need to change the flywheel and clutch assembly, and open a can of worms debating whether or not you'll destroy said gearboxes with a big block lump.

[aaronc190]

i dont care about destroying it just want to no how would i get it mated to a big block...

[DAN-F]

look in my wip mate i used a gte fly with the bolt holed re drilled slightly larger but you can use a 1.7 na derv fly as well as long as its not an isuzu one

**** you im far from a pikey

[Stuart]

aww diddums did you take offense to that?..... hmm like I care. Just fit a big block gearbox, makes life a million times easier

[Jack]

LMFAO

I think what Stuart means is why are you going to all the effort of bodging on a lesser, weaker, gearbox to it?

[Stuart]

RJ, i bet the answer will be "because I want to be different"...... hmmmm FAIL

[Jack]

Is "different" the new word for "unique"?

Yeah man ma bodykit iz unique, y0

Also interchangeable with "sh!t". Anyway, I digress. lol

[aaronc190]

because i have 4 spare f13's

[Stuart]

sell them and buy an F16/20 and mounting kit then :p

[Pistol Pete]

lol @ Stu!!

As said just buy the proper gearbox for the job.

[loggyboy]

Put it this way, If it was that easy to mate the small block box to a big block, people wouldnt have spent the last 10+years bothering use a mount spacer, and 22spline shafts/CVs.
