rutts Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 if you don't like the standard 240 getrag then you can use a 265 getrag from a Monza bit expensive though or even a carlton 3.0 gearbox ( but I don't know too much on those.) atlas axle is a good improvement but will need to four link and use panard rod or six link for improve location. its a choice on prices you can afford/find parts for when searching the net. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mlocke666 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 The carlton R25 (cable) or r28 (hydraulic) gearbox will definately not fit the C20XE, the starter is on the wrong side. They should fit the 4 pot CIH bottom end as this was basically a cut down version of the C30NE/C30SE block. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
