iirc the valver uses a jb3 box and the williams a jb5? in theory a 1.2 16v jb1 box should fit on but will it take the power/torque? theres a reason the 1.4/1.6 16v use a jb3 and not a jb1 after all!

182 box doesnt fit it, driveshafts are a different length iirc? not worth while stripping the box just change it for a new one, you can pick them up for a couple of hundred on ebay/forum etc (i payed £112 for a 1.2 box with 8k on the clock from a scrappies!) your looking for a 172 gearbox...

have you bedded them in yet? i usually do 2 30-5mph runs then 2 60-5mph runs then 3 80-5mph runs and usually the brakes are completely faded by then and they come back working a treat :) when your doing it DONT come to a stop as the pads can bind to the disk or warp the disk
