B6t conversion
Hi
I've just picked up a B6t motor for a conversion into a Mk2. I'm just in the process of deciding which way to go with the gearbox and was wondering if there is any advice out there from people who have done the conversion. The way I see it there are 2 options really:
1. Stick with the stock escort box, make an adaptor plate, hybrid the clutch and then not have to worry about new prop shaft, hydraulic clutch, speedo drive etc bearing in mind it will probably fall apart at about 250hp
2. Change to an mx5 box, mx5 clutch. Need to have custom prop shaft, speedo drive, hydraulic pedal box and still resign yourself to the fact it will probably fall apart at around 250hp
Hope someone out there has some advice
Cheers
Nick
