Does anyone have the GEAR RATIOS for the ASCONA 1.3L 4-speed manual? it is a very old car and got it for free, i think this car also came with a 5 speed gearbox (late model)

All i know is that a CORSA GTE fitted with a C20XE and the ASCONA
4-speed gearbox is one hell of a street-drag racer,that is why i need the gear ratios

Yes i mean corsa A. We installed a c20xe in it using the gearbox of the stock GTE engine. Though it is very short it is difficult during street racing as gear changes are done very quickly.By adding the Ascona 4-spped gearbox,it is much easier because of the long ratios. But we have to know the ratios in order to make any further mods on the gearbox or use it as is.

what are u using f16 or f20, f16 is good for acceleration and f20 is good 4 top end with slower acceleration...
