Post by: ucantfalloffacar on 26 April 2008, 19:38

hi all, first time posting so i apologies for any retardedness!. i got a mk1 ex rally car running usual rally gear with 2.0 8v on webers. i use a driver gearbox which has silly long ratios and it doesent suit my newly carb'd engine. does anyone know of a list of gearbox codes so i can find what boxes use what ratios as im going to put together a short ratio box. thanks. also it is a 1983 campaign and has the smaller driveshaft, i also need to know what gearbox should have been in the car originally. cheers.
