Hi wogboy,

It sounds like you have the standard V6 capri gearbox:

Reverse is far left and down.


Cheers

Hi Wogboy69,
I have the later single rail (top loader) V6 gearbox fitted to my V6 and reverse is to the Left and Down (or back). As previously pointed out by cosworthfreak, if the linkages are on the external left-side of the gearbox, then you've got the old original V6 gearbox, not the updated version with the better 2nd gear ratio! Cheers and happy new year, Terry
