PeteG Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Hi AllIs there an extension available for the 4 speed Ford gearbox fitted in my Lotus 7 S2?. Its too far forward to be comfortable now I have the seating in the right place for me.Regards Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vine Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 The only extension I'm aware of is this one, featured in the 1988 Assembly Guide:I've no idea whether that would suit a '65 S2, or even whether the parts are still available.A call to Chris Mintoft at Redline may shed some light.JV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldAndrewE Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 What gearbox is it, Ford 105E 3 rail type? I think originally they used a Triumph Herald extension modified to fit. Later I think a Cortina extension was used that fitted straight on One like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
