which gearbox should i get ?

[thedylmeister]

Syncro on second is doing my swede in on my valver and i've decided to get the thing changed but what do i go for.

The car is slightly modded with cams, custom chip, polished ported head and lightened and balanced bottom end but i will be getting a turbo bolted on next year via KTEC

so what do i do, do i get 16v gearbox refurbished, do i buy a williams one, or is there another option ?

also what is the difference between valver and williams gearbox i am told its just the fifth ratio being higher on the williams ?

cheers

Ive got a valver and Williams box

Williams box uses stronger bearings and all the gears are different inside ...they tend to last a touch longer

how much for the gearboxes and will the speedo be ok with the williams gearbox ? and will it be good for 8000rpm ?

be sweet for 8k

I want £150 for my williams box

Mat Black on here can get them for about £550 reconned from reno
