901 gear ratios

Post by keith fellowes »

A mate has a 901 gearbox with gears ADIOT in it
We know it is not standard gearing but could it be a setup for rallying?

Anyone any ideas?

HI
has the box a Std 7:31 CWP, if so

Approx ratio speed due to tyre size

Max speed to 7.000 RPM
1st A(Std) 38.4 MPH
2nd D 54.3 MPH
3rd I 76.6 MPH
4th O 97.6 MPH
5th T 118.8 MPH

that is with a MAX of 7.000 RPM, with the ratio change around the 5.000 rpm mark for 1st >2nd and 2nd >3rd, rest are above the 5.000 mark

The box came along with a lot of other parts as part payment for an Avenger rallycar!
The box is complete and I have no idea what type of case it is
It is for sale, if you're interested I can put you in touch

What is the gearbox numbers? There are two different stampings.

These will tell all.
