Chris you won't find any reference in either Jap or US manuals for this box..it is as Brent has described a "Cook" gearbox which had custom machined gearsets for Shellport competition in NZ. As for strength they don't like high torque engines and are marginal behind A14s...

The bellhousing can be used I have being meaning to do one for a while but got tied down with other stuff. The head thing is an old story and I have often questioned our forklift mechanics and none of them knew of any valuable differences...the castings may be altered internally but I reckon it is more of a theory that if it's industrial it's heavy duty.

It was an accident, and it is difficult to stop everyone getting hurt. I too knew Mark and at the time thought what if his car had a Nascar side impact set up and Peter Brock's car for that matter. But I also realised that if that style of cage was to be adopted eventually otherr classes would follow suit. Motor racing has always been dangerous and anyone competing should know that at any time your number could be up and you could be killed in infinite freaky ways...look at Bathurst for instance in the last few years theres been kangeroos on the track, wheels through windscreens and sandtraps that don't "trap" ,driving at high speed even in controlled situations is dangerous and can get you killed,it's tragic when it happens but as they say you know the risks and thats motorsport.
