Thanks Mate
I think I will go with a T5 gearbox.
It is so much a different car to drive then the VB.

I know very little about 8 bangers. It is an LV2 therefore it is a high comp 304 as i understand.
Gear box is M40 trimatic. I thought all 304s were turbo pattern?
Diff is a G70 which is a 2.60 single spinner.

Not that I care much cause all that stuff will go.

So the diff, gear box and intake manifold carby and cleaner will be available if some one wants to make an offer.
I also has a heavy duty haman reece towbar also if some one is interested otherwise I willput on ebay.

I have decided limit the boby kit to a Group 3 front and rear spoiler and retain the original Calais black over silver look.

I can source just about all the parts i need except a V8 pedal box. If anyone has one siting in the shed collecting dust I would be happy to buy it from you.
