Where in Brisbane to take Transmission?
I am in the process of rebuilding a buggy and have an 1800 box but i am putting a 2L engine in. So what i need to do is get the Bell housing changed
so i can use the larger flywheel. So my Q is does anyone know where i can get this done in Brisbane?

Why cant you do it yourself? its only a matter of unbolting the old bellhousing and bolting on a new one. And changing the input shaft is just as easy

I dont have any of the parts to do the conversion and would prefer to get this done by someone who knows what they are doing and i have no idea about
the transmission.

I second Laurence at German Autos (haven't used the others though so cannot comment on them). He is a bit of grumpy fella, but certainly knows what
he is doing.
