Hi there all new to all of this so help would be great. iv just bought a metro turbo engine but i would like advise on what gear box to get ( as it did;t have one) and the best diff to use its not going to be used for racing just a run around.

4 pin all the way. It's no fun fishing bits of planet gear out of your gear box....

If you are running a T3, minispares do a 2" down pipe that mates to most similar sized exhausts. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:
