Looks like a Cortina mk2 box.... Check the ratios as could be a GT box (1st gear to be 1.97:1, good luck!

Thanks as always Marty, just need to test fit it now to make sure I can use it with the Mk1 GT console...

Thanks for that, did a test fit and it works with my console. Ordered a couple of seals, fingers crossed thats all it needs...

No worries, i have the seal no's if you want to get them from your local bearing shop, i pay about $7 for the extension housing seal, and i have copies of all of the 1600 gaskets and type 3 boxes if you want to cut your own out, yeah,yeah, i know, my wife calls me a cheap **** also..........

Thanks for the offer, got what I need for now, will make the top cover seal myself, got heaps of gasket material left over from my last build.
Nothing wrong with being cheap, I'm on a pretty strict budget for this car...
Cheers Drew
