t5 gearbox

Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the t5 gearbox?

Want to see if it fits down the locost tunnel.

Or does anyone near oxford have one that I could come and meassure?

Or, if you have an ebay account, you could ask

Or anyone else selling one on ebay

Yes I am watching it on ebay, and may ask him, he currently has a couple of T5s for sale.


Just wondering if anyone has the measurements to hand, or is local then I could take some measurements (probably easier).

Does the T5 have the same prop connecter as a Type 9? Or is it completely different?

There are some approximate measurements (say +/- 10mm) of my set-up below, but these don't include the width unfortunately, which is probably the most important dimension. I can get some better measurements for you, but not until the week after next.

V8 + T5 dimensions
V8 + T5 dimensions


FYI, the output shaft is approx 27" mm diameter with 25 splines. Not sure if that's the same as a Type 9...
