Type 3 gear boxes are the same strength wise as a Beetle box, although the Type 3 single side plate gearboxes have a 4.125 ring and pinion, 'L' bug have a 3.88, they are no stronger.

No, the gear box with the 3.88 R&P has a lower top gear to make up for the higher R&P, so it is about the same, 1st 2nd and 3rd are a bit taller, as they are the same ratios as the 4.125 R&P gearbox.
Hope that makes sence!
