Default Type 9 gearbox
Will my type 9 I4 gearbox be man enough to withstand a BOA v6 if driven normally as I'm going to change the bell housing, its only so I can get the engine in and running

Ye, I think as long as you aint launching it or changing gear aggressively it should be ok to get you on the move.

Cool do you know if I can use the 2.9 flywheels as I was buying bits for an mt75 and got a 2.9 flywheel instead of a 2.8, just need a starter now

You can't use the i4 box even if you change the bellhousing.

You will need the v6 input shaft too.
