For gear ratios have a look here

With the 16V it has a slight cutout on the side of the gearbox housing to allow for the crank angle sensor on the motor. You may need to accommodate for that, but apart from that it should fit. _________________ Scott Sander

Wouldn't they all have cutouts for crank angle sensors seeing as all the S3's were fuel injected?
Would a series 2 1.7 GB have a cutout I wonder? They were making FI versions of the carb cars for the Euro market so I would've thought they'd make all the gb's the same. _________________ Hugh B

Hi
Not all the series 3 cars were fuel injected, and neither did all the series 3s have power steering. Also many of the injected series 3 cars used the LE3.2 Jetronic system which used a distributor like normal, so no real need for a seperate crankshaft position sensor
All the best
