Does anyone have a solid/working GT box for sale?

My car came with two 4-speed gearboxes plus one empty case plus a type 9.

How do I identify the GT box? I'm new to all this Locost stuff; ask me about a 5JJ R1 and I'm much more clued-up.

Hi

The GT box will have the tail housing cast as a complete alloy casing and not with the steel tube on the top section. BUT some STD boxes from later cars also had the all alloy casing so best bet is to check the first gear ratio. The genuine GT had a 3.3 instead of the STD 3.6 .

Ill have an ask around also Simon.

Cheers Matt

Hi Simon

Ive had no luck in tracing one thats is in ready to go condition. Whats wrong with your existing one is it in a repairable condition ?.

Cheers Matt
