Hi guys,
Possibly a bit of a strange question and really rather specific, But does anyone know what the differences are, if any, between the F10 and F13 gearbox's? Specifically with reference to the 5th gear?
I am trying to get a better 5th gear ratio into my F13WR355 gearbox to use for my classic mini's engine conversion.
From what information I can gather the F10 gearboxes were all fitted with a 0.707ratio 5th gear which would make a nice improvement on my f13's current 0.761ratio 5th gear on the motorway.
I just want to know really if it would be a straight swap over or not. Or if I would be able to use some addition parts out of the F10 gearbox to get it to work. If small changes were required I have access to any equipment I need to make the changes, provided it doesn't involve putting metal back onto the gear.
Information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris.
