So I now have one 307cc 180 gearbox (code 20DM43) and another Picasso 1.8 gearbox (20DM71), as well as the original 20DM17 from the 206 GTI and 20DM71 from the first Picasso.

The 307 CC 180 gearbox comes with a 17x73 = 4.29 final drive which might be a good compromise in terms of ratio. I will be fitting the shorter 4.76 from the Picasso though.

My plan is to fit the 307cc 180 ratios (inc tall first gear) with the short 4.76 FD and the 5th gear from the Picasso as 65mph meant 4k rpm. The taller 5th gear should mean 4k rpm equals 78mph. Perfect for motorways....not that it will be used on motorways.

Lots of spares NOW!

And ive also found a few small differences between these gearboxes which vary from bearing thicknesses and diameters to changes in the gearbox casings . I will take pictures later.

Both the GTI 138 AND 307CC 180 gearbox housing went for soda blasting and they both cleaned up pretty well. The 138 housing which I will be using had been cleaned up to remove any soda has started to change colour already. It might be the white spirit that I used to clean it out with.

 


 


I've also ordered new driveshaft seals and reverse switch with the JPT connection rather than the standard peugeot plug. I'm trying to get rid of standard peugeot plugs as id rather use the more widely available JPT plugs.

Noticed another difference earlier. I just happened to put the original 138 GTI diff next to 2 of the other diffs I have. Looks like the crownwheel attached to the opposite face on the diff flange...

Dunno yet. It's only been up and down the driveway so far. Needed a new wire exhaust gasket for the flexi joint but it should be completely ready to drive now. Also.got some new bolts for the exhaust too.

I've decided it's time for an oil cooler!

I've fitted a Mocal thermosat sandwich plate and I've sent the Radtec radiator back to get some oil cooler mounts fabricated to mount the cooler on the front of it.

Hopefully it will come back with some -10 JIC fittings and I will then get some hoses made.

All finished now. It's amazing how much this costs. Over £300!

Oil is going into the cooler so hopefully it will keep the oil temperatures down.

It's amazing just how 'uncluttered' all that looks!

Looks like there's so much room to be able to get to bits easily, or is it just a trick of the camera?

There is plenty of access. The jenvey inlet is a lot less bulky than the standard plastic inlet so that frees up a lot of space under the manifold.
