Default ST170 gearbox?

Just wondering if there are different types, or are they all the Getrag type. If there is a difference how do you tell.
All so will they bolt to a CVH block, are they any bigger or smaller than a BC box.

Cheers Ginger.

its a good swap because you can run a bigger clutch but you can get a bc box to take the power of a cvh and the 6spd will need a uprated diff,what will you be doing with you old diff out of the box you broke?
