Count the teeth on the 3.6 crown wheel and devide it by the teeth on the 3.6 pinion.

Do the same with the 3.9 wheel and 3.9 pinion.

That will give you the ratios if you have any doubt.

Hi mark

dont forget run it in about 300 road miles and use decent 75/90 fully synthetic oil in both parts of the box , use the gears to slow you down aswell while running in

in the diff use decent 80w/140w fully synthetic oil


good luck with the stuff mate

cheers marco

small update done more on the inlet just needs sand blasting, a fitting for the external anti lag valve and paint


shaped all the inside etc with dye grinder

plenum spacer welded on


wheels been acid dipped and my dad re painted them after the last lad fucked them up! look spot on now and a much better colour. just gona leave them for a wk then fit tires




got all the bolts matched up from under car etc to allen head bolts and will paint them apropriate colours will look much better



and a bit pissed about these 'collins' engine mounts got discount tho 100quid delivered but look EXACTLY the same as the cheap ones of ebay ie no collins printed into them or anything!

getting somewhere now. done a few hours today

dads painted the box for me gona put a bit of laquer on so it washes off easier. drilled 2 holes for the slave cylinder pipes to go through. wil make a blank for where the arm used to go through next wk so no shit can get in.



sand blasted the inlet and rocker cover again as i wasnt happy with it.



cut the pipe to length for the fuel reg warmed pipe up and pushed on. will paint plenum in wk. then hopefully next sat get the engine box and diff built up.



as im using a wrc breather i didnt need the breather on rocker cover so made a 'bung' on the lathe and knocked that in and smoothed over.

i wander once its all built up how much it would move if i tried to fire it up!! really wana hear it now! want to get some real work done now rather than half an hour here and there.
