It's only a general arrangement drawing. If you email Collotti they will send you one for free.

Re: COLOTTI 5 SPEED GEARBOX BMC MINI COOPER S MK1
rtec, Do you have the rest of it?
Our member 59Fan runs one in his Mini Pickup.
I had one years ago, but never got it completely working.
They are the only ones I have ever seen.

Oh no, I don't have a Colotti gearbox. I collected only the pictures.

Very Interesting. I have one of these crazy things that I would love to get rid of. Been working with Simon on a purchase but haven't heard the final word. If he decides not to go for it I will list it on the For Sale section. I am in the States.

Re: COLOTTI 5 SPEED GEARBOX BMC MINI COOPER S MK1
I also have one of these as a complete remote gearbox. It has a very low final drive fitted, so low that that the pinion is machined into the main shaft to accommodate the giant crown wheel. I have a spare main shaft as well. The gears are pretty narrow, so I suspect the intended use was a high revving low torque engine installation.
I'm also in USA. I'll take some pics and get them posted soon.
