    1.8 Marina Gearbox discussion

    Does anyone have a 1.8 Marina gearbox input shaft on the bench, the one with 23 Splines.
    I would love to know the overall length of the shaft. I know how far it sticks out of the box, it's the overall length that is important to me.

    Thanks

    Re: 1.8 Marina Gearbox discussion

    Whilst it is specifically a 1.8 that I am interested in, my guess is that a 1.3 is exactly the same length as the bell housing is the same on all Marina / Ital cars, except for a minor variant around the input shaft oil seal, the actual bottom of which I have not got to yet.

    Any takers for a 1.3 input shaft overall length?
