No point, gearbox is too weak. There are better options so why bother.
The T50 bolts straight up and can handle most of the power. You can even get aftermarket bellhousings to adapt the W series gearboxes if you have some serious power under the bonnet. Usually not needed in a Zook.
Thats pretty much the bottom line.

In my opinion if your going to the trouble and expense of converting to a 4AGE engine then why do a half arsed job when it comes to the gearbox. There have been plenty of failed T50's behind 4AGE engines so I would not expect a Zook box to hold up for very long at all.

i also dont think its half assed..
the zook box's fit rather nice...
and a 4age is a better conversion than a vit motor by far in my book...

why go to all the efort of gearbox. jack shaft (wich will nearly 100% viabrate from short shaft) when u can just bolt her up
