Hi I have finally managed to obtain 711m 1600 engine which is now being re-built. I would like to change to a 5 speed box and fit an lsd to my1996 narrow body can anybody tell me which gear box will fit the 711m engine and which diff/axel will fit into my car?

cheers

Five speed gearbox = Ford Sierra 'Type 9'... :t-up:

Diff/axle = Does your car have independant rear suspension, or is it a live axle?

OK, with regard to diffs, the worlds your oyster. But perhaps the 'friendliest' LSD to fit would be a Quaife ATB diff. Compared to most other LSD's, it requires no setting up (unless you buy the the choice they offer that is adjustable...), and is effectively maintainance free.

HTH Stu :t-up:
