Can anybody recommend a gearbox rebuild company for my type 9?

Leicester, Peterborough, Nottingham, Newark?

Cheers.

If your going to have it rebuilt its worth saving up and having the longer 1st gear put in
BGH are cheaper than Quaife and also do case and layshaft modifications for improved oil flow

Have to say one of the best mods to my car was a BGH long first box but if you want a standard rebuild I can recommend A1Gearboxes in Eaton Socon near St Neots

Indeed.

I though I saw a price list for BGH which had a standard box rebuild at £290 ish.....?

Have to say the BGH box in mine with the right ratios totally transformed the car, It just stayed in the power band and was great to drive

ALL GEARBOXES BUILT TO ORDER 40% DEPOSIT - SURCHARGE AGAINST OLD UNIT TO BE RETURNED £300

Does this mean it's really £530 for a rebuilt modified Type 9?Confused!
