2000e Gearbox
Mike Bentley - 3/1/19 at 06:07 PM

I have for sale a 2000e gearbox with 2.9-1 first gear ( one sold on e-bay for £540 before Xmas with gear lever and speedo drive)

mine looks good inside with no visible chipped gears or bulk rings, It turns smoothly and quietly in every gear.

It has no gear lever, clutch fork or speedo drive but comes with hydraulic bell housing and sandwich plate.

I bought from a reliable guy I have known for 35 years plus as part of an engine an gearbox package, I used the mint 1700 crossflow engine but not the box.

£300 collected from Watford Herts before it goes on the dreaded Ebay.

can you verify the ratio other than you believe that the former owner told you the truth?
is there a pic of the box available?

I can confirm the ratios

I checked them buy jubilee clipping a piece of mig wire the tail shaft to act as a pointer and used mini mole grips
(Lightly gripped on the input shaft) and checked every ratio as follows

1st = 2.9:1 (almost 3 but did not go beyond 3 turns)
2nd = 2.0:1
3rd = 1.4:1
4th =1:1

All approx.

The official ratios are2.972, 2.010, 1.397 & 1

the other 1st gear ratios available are 2.5 (To high) and 3.5 (To low) and mine are know ay near these.

When I said a trusted person It was in relation to the condition

PM you email and ill email lots of photos

I,m having trouble loading them to my achive from my works computer for some reason
