I have an FE 186 trimatic and i took the old traumatic out and was thinking of puting in a 4 speed out of a VH comm. The selector was to far back for me to use the original bench seat., Is it easier to  use a 4 speed from a earlier model with the selecters up the side?
thanx Liam

most people I know have fitted bucket seats if they have a 4-speed. don't know of any other 4-speed. other wise you could modify your seat by haveing a section taken out about 75mm deep and 200mm wide someone I know done this in his EH.

Liam.
I have a 202 and M20 4 speed in my FC. I retained the bench with no mods, by modifying the shifter, by moving it forward 2 inches. You need to make an adapter and shorten the linkages. I will post pics on Friday.
Regards
Alex
