guys,

am i right in thinking that you can only match a sequential gearbox to a bike engine.

this is in terms of minimum fuss and alterations.

for our first project i am thinkin that i wud like a sequential box. am i chasing pipe dreams here or is there not much more work involved compared to a standard zetec fit with regular box?

Well i know what all the BEC boys will say....

Just fit a bike engine....

With a bike engine the box is an integrated part of the engine so basically when you buy an engine you get the sequential gearbox free

No more work , just more money

you need a sprocket addaptor a prop shaft and a diff, you should a have a gearbox on the engine why do you need another ?

mind you a bmw bike has a sperate box so you could have a look at that, theres a bike breaker in gosrberton bear spalding moto bins you could ask a price.

As others have said, you cant use a bike engine one because the engine and gearbox are one integral unit, and car sequential boxes are very expensive. Here's a few examples of second hand ones that have sold on the usual forums

£2500

£2650

£2500

£3300

or buy a bike engine
