The number you posted are probably stampings on the gearbox casing not the type of gearbox that you have. Gearbox type is generally a round metal tag on the end of the gearbox. Take a look at the website from Dave Syer. Should give you an idea of what you have and what gearbox will fit.

Here are photos of 3 different types of gearboxes that I have accumulated.

I know gearbox 1 is a 5 speed, from the ball bearing thing mounted on the back.

I have no idea what gearbox 2 and 3 are, and none have any ID tags.

Can anyone identify gearboxes 2 & 3 please?

Transaxle 1 = 365

Transaxle 2 = 352

Transaxle 3 = 352

But 2 & 3 are slightly different apart from the completely different bell housings.

Presumable different versions of the same basic 4 speed gearbox.

This is my 395 from and R18 petrol engine car. The rusty bit on the RH rear of the box is an extension I bolted on to make the shift work.

Gearbox #2 has a Renault bell housing to suit an 697/821/807 engine.

Gearbox #1 & #3 look link Lotus bell housings for the Twincam

And the ball bearing thingy doesn't identify 5 speed. 352s have it as well.

If the detent cam has one notch, it's for a 4 speed (352). If it has two - like the photo - it's for a 5 speed (365).
