I'm in the market for a new HD type 9 with long first and was looking for SPC on the net but can't find them. Anyone have any contact details or website address??

Just got the new Burton catalogue and there's 4 different type 9s in there..

A standard one for £600.00 and 3 with longer firsts (2.98:1 - £995.00) an the top of the range one is an uprated helical gear kit with a 2.48 first. Description says its for use with duratec engines.

Gear kit £1,074
Complete box, exchange £1,776.

Dare I mention the rx8 box?

Handles 250hp, fully helical (no noise), similar size, short throw change, use ratios 2-6 which are effectively a clubman quaife ratio set, £150 for the box and the same for an adaptor and again for a prop (£500 all in), there are cable clutch mods if you do not have hydraulic. Putting one in my puma 1.7 Anglia in the next couple of weeks.

I don't think it will fit in the Tiger transmission tunnel. I could be wrong though

A bit too much for me to pay!!

Have you tried BGH gearboxes, they make a range of short first ranging from just a first gear change through to a full on close ratio heavy duty?

Another vote for Tracsport/SPC. Just fitted one of Steves boxes in my ModSport Midget & it is superb.

Also had the spc gear kit/gear box in my kitten this year, not broken it yet and it's very very good. So much nicer/quieter on the road than my Tranx straight cut box.

I've been looking for one for over a year, they don't seem to come up for sale s/h which must tell you about the quality, I've never heard a bad thing said about them. I've decided to bite the bullet and get a new one, expensive yes but as the yanks say " buy once cry once "
