bassethound Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Hi! I recently bought a HS-R dogleg getrag gearbox for my 2.2 CIH Manta A. The thing is the bellhousing wont fit (too long, and wrong bolt pattern). I've uploaded a picture to summarize what I am looking for. It's here: http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=791060Getrag.jpg Basically, I'd need a bellhousing that would be a mix between image 3 and 4. Or some sort of adapter if that exists. I've been told that this gearbox was has been used on CIH engines before, so I guess there must be a solution. Can someone help?

rutts Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 what you need is an opel monza 3.0 bellhousing off a getrag 265. if you require clutch on left buy one off german ebay £130 or if you can manage clutch cable on right drew and i have bellhousings that should fit. send me your email or mobile number for pics by pm message.

bassethound Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Thanks for that. But it looks like the 265 bellhousing won't fit on the gearbox, will it? If you have a look at the image here: http://hpics.li/ff5c750 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rutts Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 look slike the same as the monza bellhousing,you could make an adapter using 6mm alloy and have it ally welded to the bellhousing. other gearbox to use is getrag gearbox out of a jaguar xj40 or xjs 6 ( 265 ) if you need speedo cable.
