A quick Question

What is the designated Manual Gearbox for the Scorpio range, is it with a Hydraulic clutch or cable? What size is the driven-plate? What do they usually go for in good condition? I'm asking for a pal, I prefer Auto-box because I'm an old-fart and wonder why one should move a silly-wee-stick to change gear!

They are all MT75 type boxes
Hydraulic working a central thrust bearing
Think the clutch is a 1" shaft with 23 splines
Flywheel's, 2.0, 2.3 and TD use a dual mass flywheel (about £300 on its own), and im almost sure all 3 are the same. my cossie uses the standard type flywheel from a granada / sierra
Expect to pay around £100 - £200 for a box and the seal bearing kit should it need it is another £100
If you doing a hybrid like mine then they go for £300 +
You'll need the manual type box mount and the prop is longer then an autos to

the diesel and the later 2.3 are the strongest
you could well be correct with the 2.0 flywheel, just looked at clutch kits and they seem to be the 'normal' setup
