Tel Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Hi, Can anyone help with gearbox I/D numbers, the box i have fitted to the car has no prefix just the number 8776 is there any other way to identify if its a KC box. The car is not on the road yet so i would like to make sure the box is correct for the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glang Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Is that number stamped (not cast) in the top RH side of the main case? If so rather unusual although it may have had the original number ground off and restamped when reconditioned... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tel Posted May 24, 2023 Author Share Posted May 24, 2023 Hello Glang The numbers are stamped where you say, no sigh of grinding its the original finish, Im going to take the top off the box incase the the numbers have been stamped out of line, thanks for your reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescrapman Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 It could be that the box of letter stamps was missing that day, so you just got the numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glang Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Ha yes and also all 3 rail 4 synchro gearboxes that fit the Vitesse/GT6 range have the same ratios so really no problem which one it is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that solves the problem, I need to take the top of the box soon as the shift is a bit stiff. If no KC is found I will stamp it.

Tim Bancroft Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 Stiff shift...look at the gearchange remote mechanism. Has the box got overdrive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
