Is my gearbox up to it..?
I have a roadgoing 105e Anglia with a 130bhp X-Flow that i want to use for sprinting and track days next season, im currently running a rebuilt 2000e box with the following ratios
1# 2.972
2# 2.010
3# 1.397
4# 1.0
The first question is will the gearbox be up to the job reliability wise or should i be looking to go for a s/c gear set ?
I dont want to cut the tunnel so would really be looking to keep the same box.
Secondly are these ratios any good for the intended purpose (will be running a 4.1 LSD)
cheers Paul

Re: Is my gearbox up to it..?
my mex was putting out 120bhp and the box had no problems at all. i did maybe 3 or 4 track days otherwise it was a road car. power wise i think you would be ok.
as for ratios, dunno? 1st gear is tall and not the best at getting off the line but then I have a 3.54.

powerwise you should be ok, they have a bit of a big gap between 2nd and 3rd, but it will ok, with a 4.1 diff i would of thought the 2.9 first would be an advanage

Good stuff, one less thing to worry about then, and yes Graham its fairly lively off the line, will be even better when the slipper goes in
