Anyone have a 4 sp GT Escort mk2 g/b (i.e. the one with a web on the extension housing) or the standard 'light' g/b (without web on the extension housing). Please contact me on my email jessejazza.uk@gmail.com as I am away from home during the week and can't access the forum on my phone but can read emails.

many thanks

Type 3? I always get confused with the Ford terminology as they seem to contradict what Haynes states which is a type B (one piece cast iron) or type C with a bellhousing that can be separated. I've also seen it called Type 3

yes please I am sure we are refering to the same thing. Only difference with the GT box was it was close ratio.

many thanks

Sorry for delay I will post some pictures at the weekend. It is buried in the garage at the moment. Need to move stuff out of the way first, cheers.
