| So following on from a request for a gearbox does anyone know if the gearboxes from the flying 12/14 or any other standard boxes(poss early Triumph) fit the flying 10 engines ??? |

I have cross sectional pictures of the post war 8, and 12 and the only difference I can see is the lighter flywheel on the 8. I think it's very likely that you could use the gearbox and bell housing from a 12 or 14.

It belongs to a friend but I think he wants the top cover. I'll ask him.

Well the top cover on the Jaguar 1½ litre is a squatter affair and the rear mounting has a "V" configuration instead of the flat mounting on your green box but I'm sure the basic body is the same.
I have a collage in my website comparing the gearbox in Standards with those in the SS Jaguars.

You will see that the larger SS Jaguars have the same flat rear mounting as your box. The 1½ litre top cover looks just the same as the remote one in my collage.
I spoke to my friend this evening asking him to think about a price with and without the top cover (that I don't know whether he wants to keep).
The box is located in East Lothian.

I hope you sold your gearbox before you bought your current project.
Here's what the SS2 gearbox looks like.

| Thanks for all your help etc. I sold the box when I thought I was going to use a Stude lump. I was going to sell the engine but luckily I found the Stude would not fit before I did. Pity I didn't know before I sold the box.Of course if he wants to sell the I have limited funds😑 and could he move closer to Kent 😅.Where do you Find all this useful information I find details of standards and ss quite rare. |
