having been looking around the www ,i have found that the 1.8 ohc (manta engine )in my indy is a getrag box ????
1, how will i tell this ?
2,if so does this mean the 907 engine will bolt on to it
sorry if sound dense its all a bit new to me but like getting hands dirty ,
Think it should be.
I know my manta 2.0 GTE had a gertag ( nice box ) that why my V8 is mated to a BMW getrag !!!
should be an adjuster for the clutch top right going through the bellhousing 19mm lock nut with a 8mm square adjuster ?

the 907 used a ZF in the lotus sunbeam .
and a maxi derived garbage in the elite .
a getrag was used behind it in the jensen , those are quite rare .
..........and it would be a different getrag, I'm guessing a dog-leg first box.
Lots of jags used em
yes , of course!!
thanks for help guys

ps, box is Getrag 240, which is the same in terms of internals as several of the smaller BMW boxes (older 3 series 5 speeds) but the bellhousings are
cast-in on all of them so you need the right gearbox front casing to fit the engine you have.
The bigger getrags like the ones used on Jags and the 265 box used on senators and monzas etc have detachable bellhousings.

That 18 OHC box is good for an vauxhall 20XE 16V engine.
The 2.0E 8V getrag as far as I know the same box with only a different pattern of bolts at the bell-house. (doesn't fit on the 18 OHC or 2.0 16V DOHC )
