Type 9 ratios

Does anyone know where I can find out which gear ratios were fitted to the various type 9 gearboxes?

Cheers

Mark

I have found no variance fron these ratio's

1st 3.65
2nd 1.97
3rd 1.37
4th 1
(5th) 0.82





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Thanks Guys,

I should have looked a bit harder!

It seems the close ratio box (for V6)has a taller 1st gear (3.36) which is what I wanted to know

Cheers

don't forget the v6 gearbox has a longer input shaft (by about an inch) so needs either a spacer (ala caterham) or an expensive modified input shaft or an angle grinder taken to in (thats a joke!)

Also, the input shaft is stronger as it has an extra bearing or something on the v6.
