No Probs. If you cant find it drop me a PM ;)
looking good, that box is going to sound sweet whineing away...love the sound of a straight cut box
Got a long, long, long way to go though :cry:
Liking the box setup.
BUT that box casing to me, looks like a 4speed?
Its an f13 casing with a 4 speed straight cut cluster, thats why the end of the casing looks like it does. Unless you mean somwhere else on the case?
Ahh right, yeah the casing is a 4spd type.
So are you just having 4gears?
Afraid so. Probably going to be the biggest draw bak of the car, not much in the top end. Once the cars built i will start saving for the 6 speed kit probably.

Off to bed now, bloody nights. When i get up im going to press the nova hubs out and the cavalier hubs out there carriers. Can then take them into work and machine them for the group A bearings :) .
Not much of an update. Still trying to source the diff bearings, might have to go direct to vauxhall? Made myself a tool for tightning the diff nut, made a blanking plug for the hole where the speed sender lived and did bit more on my cam cover. Heres a few pics:

Made a fixture for my cam cover so that i can weld the piece of ally in level, also elongated the whole as its easier too make a plate.
Just drilled and tapped a piece of 10mm steel. Used m8 bolts to hold eiher end down and three m8's to level the plate up. Simple.
