Gearbox casting number

[ivor badger 2]

I have a friend with a 22G382 gearbox casing. What is it from and what is the correct casing for a 1071 S?

I think (waits to be corrected ) that some early cars had 22G68's and the later (most) cars had 22G190's, there may have even been a bleed off into the 333 casings right at the end of the run

Maybe it's good to read through this thread on the subject of 1071 casing numbers:

What I have found over the years is that there are three types of the 22G382 3-synchro B-type gearbox all with the 22G231 laygear. Where I have seen this box original from the following vehicles:- magic wand box were from the Elf & Hornet, Mini remote diff housing box also from the Elf & Hornet and with the 1100 type diff casting in the MG, Riley, Vanden Plas and Wolseley 1098cc ADO16 cars.

Most tended to have a 3.76 final drive and were rubber joint type.

Hope this helps someone.

I'm surprised you found 3.765 diffs in ADO16 1100 3 syn boxes. I only ever found 4.1's.

Nick, the twin carburettor 1098cc ADO16s mostly seem to be 3.765 final drive and the single carburettor 1098cc units mostly tend to be 4.1 final drive.

But again I have a very early Wolseley 1098cc car and it has a 4.1 final drive believed to be original to the car so God knows?

Being a Wolseley, it probably came with a single carb engine.
