I've done both a MT75 and T5 box conversion in the past and know exactly what is needed but i've never done a type 9 as all the engines have been too powerful.

Type 9 is not a very nice gearbox, can you not use a DOHC 2 litre Sierra flywheel and MT75 ?

Hmmmmm it would appear if you are a user on this site who does something you cant say to anyone you do it, but if you arent a user people can recommend your stuff and thats fine.

So does this mean Tiff cannot tell anyone he has skills in the area of plumbing because thats advertising, but if I say Tiff has a way with a ballcock like no other man I've met thats fine ?
