Fuchs Syn 5, Millers CRX and Redline Lightweight Shockproof are ideal for it.

whatever the manufacturer recommends, given that it doesn't have Peugeot synchro's in there you don't have to stick with the typical Total 75W80 BV oil.

 

so which manufacturer's gearset is it?

[burr_2000 1]

Thanks for the Info Burr, where did you buy the kit from? Is it for the MA box?

[burr_2000 1]

Yeah its for a MA box, but only for competition use as its has no synchromesh and the diff whine is horrible. it was about £3600 for the box

[MattCoggins 3]

Yeah, i would love a dog box for my hillclimb car.

 

Where did you buy the gear kit from?
