Default Re: capri v6 gt mk1 gearbox problem !!!!!

cpari_72_GT...
My Type 5 has a cast iron bell housing, with (I think) alloy gearbox tail extension. All bolts are METRIC !!! The shift is just soooo much better than the Type F with the (my worn) linkages.
Size wise, I reckon it is even a bit bigger than the Type F (tunnel clearance is more limited on the top).
Check the numbers below.

All the Type 5 parts (box, bell housing etc) should have part numbers cast into them.
HOUSING - clutch 72GB 7505 GA
TRANSMISSION ASSY 73EG 7003 BA
HOUSING - transmission extension 72GG 7A039 AA
(so sayeth the Capri Parts Manual RS3100 Supplement)
