Gearbox ID

G`day guys
Can someone please help me identify this box?  Its a four speed and i`m suffering from a mental block, i cant think lol.
The bell housing makes it impossible to remove the box from the engine while in the car.

    Looks like a Tye E Rocket from a cortina by the position of the gear leaver,

    Cheers mate, i just couldnt think of it for some reason. One thing that had me confused was the location of the hole in the extension housing

    Looks like a plain old type E single rail 4-speed to me, Cortina fitment with the gear stick at the very back (or imported RS escort fitment). Unlikely to be a rocket box. 1st gear will be the clue. If it's 3.65 it's common old 4-speed, if it's around 2.4/2.5ish then you've got some version of a 'rocket 'ratio gearkit.
