Should be able to, might just need to get a remote change setup instead of rod change. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

It should fit ok. You'll obviously have to change to remote type shifter or change the casing to rod type though. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

I have a rod type casing, so is it just a case of swaping the internals? or would it just be easier to get a remote type shifter? Would I have to ghange to the older type clutch casings and clutch type? Flat oot like a dukes fit! |

You can use whatever clutch you like as that's governed by the flywheel type. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

The casing will bolt to any block, you will just need to have the correct transfer case, or renew the bearings in the transfer case and the bearing on the first motion, because they are a machined pair. I think you can use your existing case as long as you do as above, but I'm not 100% sure,someone should be along to confirm or deny this haha. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

1st is a crash gear so it gets fucked... as there is no syncro on this gear, hence 3sync box... Edited by gr4h4m on 29th Dec, 2013. I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

There's no synchro on 1st gear, so nothing to slow the gear down when you down shift to first. Very easy to wear first gear out. It's likely to be crunchy in first gear. Personally I would sell it on and get a 4 synchro A+ box.

Slow down, many people have spent a fortune on useless/ unsuitable parts. Take your time, do the research and buy carefully |

Had my eye on this box but was out this afternoon and didn't get a chance to bit before it ended. Price was lower than i'd expected it would go for |

You'll need a pre A+ transfer gear set for that too On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
