Blacktop turbo, Which gearbox setup do i need?
Afternoon all,
Ive come to a bit of a problem on my blacktop zetec turbo build.
Its being fitted into a racing puma engine bay (same as fiesta mk4 & 5) My plan is to use the exsisting mount in the bay.
Im pretty sure there isnt a box that will bolt straight in, correct me if im wrong!
Which gearbox or boxes do i need?
I need a rear mounted started so that rules out the IB5 fitted to 1.6 Zetec SE and the standard Puma one. A Ka box has a rear mounted starter but the bell housing pattern doesnt match to the Black top sump pattern. Does it to a silver top one?
My plan was to use the bell housing off one box to mate up to the engine, the rear of a box that uses the same mount and fit my own gear set and LSD while im on with it.
regards
Matt
