Hi folks. First post. I'd like to know if anyone knows of a close ratio gear set for the S59 gearbox, preferably straight cut gears or a dog 'box alternative for race/ rally use please.

I have just bought an ex New Zealand "Schedule S" and UK National Saloon Car Cup race Carina E that was built in NZ by Dave Cook Racing Services in 1993 and race originally by Julian Bailey in the NZ Schedule S race series and later by a Dave Pitcher and then Barry Barnes in the UK. The car is still in very good condition but unfortunately the gearbox in it seems to have been damaged and several of the ratios are badly graunched. Its a standard 'box with an LSD fitted. I'd like to consider a suitable straight cut dog 'box replacement or a straight cut close ratio replacement gear set if anyone knows of such a thing. I do have a spare 'box which may be a an S50 or another S59 (not sure yet) but I don'nt know the state of that yet. I guess I may just ahve to replace it with another standard 'box from a breakers.

I intend to race the car in the Classic Sports Car Club's (CSCC) Tin Tops series of 40 minute races for one or two drivers.

Thanks

Andy
