Ex-Finesse Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 Taller ratios than the 1.6 and 1.8 gearboxes. Fitted to 2L mondeos and RS2000's. *Think* it's a straight swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bothered about off the line performance, after mid-range and top end more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
