Jag gertrac box into saph

What model of Jag does the box come from ? what diff do you use ? and what mods need to be done to the prop ?

Finally is there any advantage in using this set up over normal T5 etc ?

I have only ever heard of the diff being used, not the entire gearbox

Getrag boxes were used in RS500 Touring cars.

Its the same as any company, they do week boxes and they do strong boxes.

bit like Tremec (Borg-Warner)
