Ford E-Type / Rocket

The Ford Type E gearbox (sometimes also called Rocket) was designed to replace the Type 3 gearbox in certain applications.
The clutch bell of this gearbox is generally removable, but on the latest models equipping the Ford Sierra the bell is integral.
Cast iron housing with aluminum gearbox tail, 23-spline input shaft and Ø 1", this gearbox is generally found on:

Ford Capri 1.6 / 2.0 from 1982
Ford Cortina Mk3 2.0
Ford Cortina Mk4/Mk5 1.6GT/2.0/2.3
Ford Escort RS2000 Mk1 / Mk2
Ford Escort RS Mexico Mk2
Ford Sierra 1.6 / 2.0

Oil capacity 1.5 liters.
The E-type gearbox is often (incorrectly) called the Rocket gearbox. The Rocket is a very rare version of this E-type gearbox, developed by Ford for competition and equipped with a specific short-ratio gear set.
