mk2 gearbox

[big mike]

hi felas, i'm after a manual box for my mk2 1400, do i need to find that specific box or will one from a 1.7 or even from the 360 series fit?

cheers mike

AFAIK the most important thing is: 4spd or 5spd (5spds are longer hence shorter diff).

Otherwise swap gearbox and diff over at the same time. Have a look at this thread if you want to keep the diff ratio the same:

sorry i forgot to say its a 5 speed

Get a 5 speed 1.4 gearbox, the diff will be the right ratio that way
