Just got my gearbox...
« on: 07 February 2008, 23:04 »
Its an 020 for an 8V off a Mk2 16V. 

What effect would the diffrent ratios have on my engine?

Will it pull less but have a higher top speed or...
Pull more and have a lower top speed?

I hope its the seccond one!  :grin:  Is there anything i can do to help it live longer?   I will but a good new oil in it and clean it up, i guess its all i can do!   I dont know for sure if it works but he said the big end went on his golf before he drove it but there was no reason why it wouldnt work,  I payed £40 for it so im not complaining   :wink:
10 golfs and counting!
