4 speed type 2 gearbox
I have a 1997 1600 Crossflow Super 7, with a 4 speed gearbox. The clutch needs replacing, so I thought as the 'box is rather clunky, to change this at the same time. Does anyone have a rebuilt standard one, or perhaps something a bit more upgraded - SC etc?
My current box has an integral bellhousing (Type 2), so I would prefer to replace like for like, unless what you have has a suitable bellhousing that will require no further mods to the car etc.
Thanks in advance.

A SC gearset in a road car will eventually drive you nuts with the noise and actually SC gear teeth / gears are weaker than helical gears. The usual upgrade route is fit a Type 9 5 speed box if only for the overdrive 5th.
