    Lotus Talbot 2,2 ZF gearbox propshaft

    Does anybody know the Lotus Talbot 2,2 with 5 speed ZF gearbox has the same splines and same diameter for the propshaft as the one fitted to Ford and Opel and others?

    Did the Ford auto gearbox propshaft fit this gearbox. I believe it was the case with Opel.

    I have to fabricate a propshaft for my dyno so I can fit the engine including the box. If someone out there got the right joke or propshaft, I'm willing to buy this.

    Zf gearboxes for the Escorts, Sunbeams and Opels has the same mainshaft and the same tailhouse. Than the propshaft nose has the same sizes and spline.
