mark69 Posted June 18, 2012 Author Posted June 18, 2012 Is it a 1.8 or 2.0?? Ones longer ratio i think ??
mantasrme Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Gearbox internals are the same for 1.8 and 2.0 but the outer casings are different. 1.8 fits the vauxhall engines (J series family 2 like c20xe etc) 2.0 fits the Opel CIH (cam in head) engines The rear axles are different with the 1.8 being lower (better for acceleration) the 2.0 is a better crusing axle
mark69 Posted June 18, 2012 Author Posted June 18, 2012 Cheers mate so i need a 1800 box. its on a chevette with standard axle for now. gears are super close due to the diff. upgrading to a 4ha axle when i get chance...
