hi what is the best gear box to use for a LET nova running 250bhp?
how much work goes into fitting the 6 speed f28? can it be done?

If you dont want to go through the hassle of fitting a f28 then f18w is what i would go for

f28 will need to be converted to 2wd if not all ready, nova gerbox mount on chassis needs to be cut off and the conversion one welded in the right place. i think gear linkage needs to be cut and shortened and 2 holes drilled and tapped in the gearbox.

i am going with a f20 and ap racing 4 paddle clutch for my track let nova, hope to be about 280bhp. from what i read most gearboxes other than the f28 will give up to easy and not take much abuse but i am going to give it ago
