Thanks guys as you know the main shaft for the 04cv8 T56 box is hard to come by.Vince box tried and tested to no joy but hopefully fingers crossed new shaft is on its way from the usa to fix my box.

Vxr monaro box and 3.9 diff combo is no good i had a vxr box fitted temporary and hated it way too short on the gear changes
