Gearbox query

[davidg]

Phil, can you answer this please, a question from a chap in Australia
Hi David I was wondering if you could tell me if a P5 manual gearbox would fit my 1965 110 P4 with o/d as I've seized my gearbox thanks in advance

Yes and you can even (or must?) use the P5 remote change - I have seen the conversion done twice but the only problem I would see is that the P4 has its so called rear engine mounting in the gearbox extension housing so this must be transferred over I presume. The gearbox internals are the same and even the overdrive will be for that year - the gearbox top covers and selectors will differ because of said gear change so it will be a partial gearbox rebuild if you to keep the P4 remote unlessa P5 Mk1 box can be sourced
