A bellhousing to suit the W55 to R
A clutch fork to suit the W55
A clutch slave to suit the W55
A throwout bearing holder to suit
A correct shifter position to suit

= Not a good idea. Put a w50. They are parictically as strong, and they fit.

W50 is one of the nicest boxes I've ever used.
Nice ratio's too.
Everything from the W40 swaps on to it too.

W55 is the same as W50 in 5th, as is W57.
All around the 0.850-0.861 mark.
Only the W58 has 0.783

Definately don't need to change the yoke.
I have a R series to W55/57/58 bellhousing too if you are interested.
