Hey there guys,

I'm sorry I know this is somewhat repeating but I tried a few searches and browsed a few titles and couldn't find what I read a while ago in regards to 5Spd boxes.

I'm looking at getting a 5Spd for my 240K, because let's face it, it's not really driving if you're not changing the gears yourself.

The guy I bought the car from has one that he was going to use to convert, he's told me it's out of a L28ET DR30, and from what I remember of his descriptions when I was getting the car is it's a good box and so he wants a bit for it, it's the type where 1st gear and reverse are on the same branch, I have no idea what to call the box, or if it has a specific name, but yes, first is Left, then down thus making 2nd and 3rd on the same line and 4th and 5th on the same.

Sorry about the crappy description but if anyone knows what I'm talking about and can give me an estimate on what these cost, I'd be very grateful.

Gear config is like above.

IIRC there was a factory competition box with the dogleg first/second gear change arrangement. Makes a lot of sense for any competition use, except drags or autocross I suppose. Then there were the Hollinger gear sets available for competition use I think but don't know whether or not the shift pattern was changed for them.
