GEARBOX QUESTIONS

Subject: GEARBOX QUESTIONS
by DF1200 on 2005/4/24 3:55:45

Ive done a couple of CA18 conversions in the last few years using front cuts. These have been for other people and every time i say that i will not attempt it again. Well this time this one is for me for our business as a delivery ute
My question is
I have on both occassions used the CA box and auto tunnel, and a commercially available fitting kit, which brings the gear lever right back. A supposedly knowledgable fellow from one of these import places said that an RB30/VL gearbox would be shorter and that the CA bellhousing would fit onto the sandwich plate of this box. So I bought a reco one and you guessed it, it does not fit.The numbers cast into this box are RP71C#1
What box will fit the CA bellhousing and be shorter and what car is this shorter box from

Thanks

PS If anyone is after a reconditioned RB30/VL five speed I have a spare one !!!!!
