Title: Syncro 3 speed box into FC gearbox tunnel Post by: TAYZ on June 11, 2006, 04:02:15 AM I have just aquired a all syncro red motor three speed gearbox and shifter from a forum member Graeme(Thanks Graeme!) what i want to know is,
(a) Will it bolt straight up to the grey motor (b) Will I have to modify the gearbox tunnel to suit (c) Do I need to make up a crossmember for it (d) Is there any other mods i will need to do for this conversion. Any feedback would be great as I hope to start this straight away, cheers TAYZ Title: Re: Syncro 3 speed box into FC gearbox tunnel Post by: Russ on June 11, 2006, 04:26:48 AM I Have a 202 bolted to the fc crash box so i guess they have yhe same pattern. no idea about the rest but i was told nothing exept the old box fits without mods which is why i had to find an old one when mine broke. hope it all goes well for you :) :)
