I\'ll be replacing a friends gearbox in a few weeks, as his is a bit tired. Would his old one do? all the gears work fine i think it just wines a little. Will find out the exact problem if you would like.

ok m8 i\'ll ask him. Not sure when we\'ll be taking the engine and gearbox out as I have two other engines to build before then, so am gussing sometime in early Feb. So if you can\'t wait that long no worries, just let me know.

Ta,

Yes it is hydraulic and it is a pull type clutch as std, operated by a slave with it\'s own clutch cylinder. It takes the fluid from the brake resevoir.
