Gear Box upgrade

Old Timer
Can a 1.8 carb drive a 1.8 GTI Gearbox?
the flanges can be swapped for the ones on your old box so your 90mm shafts fit and will probably need the seals doing anyway, or buy 100mm shafts and hubs.
020 Flange
the clutch will fit but should use a 210mm clutch with 9 bolt flywheel but you should have that if its from the 1.8.

That gearbox will bolt on the engine and fit in the car with no problems,

I found an interesting upgrade for those who don't have a FD type gearbox ;

I was also told the original clutches can be hammered up to about 150bhp but after that you need to get a heavier duty clutch. I have a bigger clutch already but just curious to know the limits of the 020 in bhp? Does anybody know? Thanks
