Is it one bang when you put it in gear, or a series of bangs as you drive along in reverse gear? Is it loud/rough enought that you actually feel it go bang, or just hear a sorta clunking noise?

Firstly, watever it is, I wouldn't drive it.... atleast not in reverse

, i had a noise exactly how you describe it, only it was when I went forward, not reverse, turns out one of my gears was chewed out. So if your pretty good with a spanner, drop the gearbox maybe? If not, go to a mech, and bring a wad of cash cuz mine cost around 600 but that was with uni's and sum other stuff.

Nah it wont fit.. can you put the 2.8D motor in too
Possibly could get a rebuild of your current box.. seeing you have it out already.. get some new bits a peices put into it.
