Gearbox all built back up again now, and transfer housing trial fitted, and everything looks good, and turns freely now. I'm still weighing up whether to make up a transfer housing gasket up, or just use flange sealant. *oh well*

Electronic shifter looks like it'll fit in fine, just a support bracket to make now.

Yeah it's getting there now, I've got a few more things to try out with the box before its finally fitted.

Jim - I'll get a picture of your box, when I remove this one. *wink*

Rob - yeah I've had the electric shifter shiftering I the box, but at the time it didn't have he gears in the box, only the selector mechanism. The plan is to try it again with it bolted to the engine to check the bracket is strong enough.

All the reverse gear gubbins is now together for the first time. It might make more sense on how it works now. *happy*

Yep they will be inside the box, the bottom 2 will be submerged but I'm not sure about the top 2, but they'll certainly be splashed with oil.

They are high temp air fittings, so use Kalrez o rings instead of viton/nitrile which is oil resistant, so will we see if they hold up! Lol

After 8 hours of bench testing over the weekend going through various heat cycles etc...I'm finally happy enough with everything for it to be fitted. *happy*

This is it running, using the electronic push button shift. I've found that you have to be very positive with the buttons, they only shift during the time you are holding the button, so if you let go too soon it does a half shift. I may look into using my timer PCB to give a fixed pulse signal if I find its missing gears too much.

Thanks for the comments, I'm just glad it's nearly finished now!

I've started working back on the car now, finishing the stuff I started 2 years ago. Soo many things I started and never got round to finishing.
