Dave_Gilbert

evocarlos

there ok just know for the 5th and 6th gear stripping and the bearing on the 6th gear shaft failing

Dave_Gilbert

Wouldnt an f40 be better then?

evocarlos

yes but i can get the m32 fix kit for £80 🙂

at this point in time i could fit either the flywheels are prolly the same 🙂

Seeing you've had most parts stripped/replaced/played around with😉 . would u know how difficult it is to change the door latch on the coupes? Can i just undo the screw on the latch and it comes off? Or is panel off and strip loads of bits to get to the latch on the insode of the door?

Need guidance master 🙂
