Thanks for replies. Fitchett want £350 plus postage. The gearbox is currently in a local gearbox centre and the chap knows these gearboxes inside out.. Great. Mainshaft tip worn, laygear worn, bearings shot, so I have taken a gamble on obtaining a second hand box which he is going to strip. Hopefully enough decent parts with a new bearing/syncro kitt tomake one decent box.  

My gearbox is in for repair as it was very noisy and 4th difficult to select. Had a call its morning with bad news, main shaft worn, layshaft worn, rear gear chunk missing, 3 synchro rings shot, bearing set required amongst other things. Advice was to buy a recon box as it would work out cheaper at £450 from either Rimmers or Paddocks, but neither have any available. Quiller are a few days tunaround but Aron £490 plus postage .... Far too costly. So after looking at the usual sites there are hardly any 1300 3 rail boxes around. But plenty of 1500 boxes. Would a 1500 box fit, I realise I may have to change the cluchplate, or is there more to it??

Thanks for replies. 3 pin electronic unit fitted today. works a treat.... Brilliant

Mk lv Spitfire. I have slow indicators both left and right, changed flasher unit (2pin) and still slow. Any ideas?? Thanks
