hi chaps
I have just swapped from using a wide rib belt to a v belt setup
the V belt early alternator didnt come with a bracket to mount it to the engine and it doesnt look to be the same as the wide belt alternator
does anyone have a picture of the mounting bracket? can I use another one from a different vaux?
HELP

I have got a c20let using an f20 gearbox
with the shafts in all the way, when I spin the wheels the gearbox makes a clicking clunky sort of noise. sort of noise u get when its not fully in gear, perhaps as if the cv joints arent in fully(they are and have been smacked loads with a hammer)
is there anything that it could be or that I could try?
or is it likely that the gearbox is fucked?

Box is ready to come out!! All loom and pipework over the box area is out and bolts are all cracked off ready to just drop out and fit the new one.
Hopefully will be done tomorrow or saturday! Fucking roll on the weekend! Hopefully have a working car

Well today after work I set about removing the last of the bolts,starter motor and also had to undo the front tiebar bracket. I then whacked a jack under it and set about lowering it down on the box side and whipping off the box 
Lack of pictures as I was doing it on my own! what a cunt it was to but anyways, I now have an empty space in my engine bay and tomorrow I can begin to fit the new box(if i can get someone to give me a hand.
Woo empty space...
Fooked gearbox! might strip it and figure out exactly what was wrong, I have a feeling its something to do with the input shaft.
