Getrag 265 center section case

[teahead]

Good for if your case has one or more of the mounts busted.

Up for sale is a center section for a Getrag 265/6 (OD) transmission.

This is just the part to replace those center sections that have been damaged. Usually the mounting ears are busted off.

I have TWO for sale. Price is for $20 EACH plus shipping within the CONUS..

One is a BMW part with the holes (can get caps for these); the other is a GM part with no holes drilled.

Getrag 265s came on many cars. Mostly BMWs. E.g E30 M3s, 528i, but also used in BMW E9s for retrofit. Also used in Mercedes W113 Pagodas for retrofit.

Note: these will not work with dogleg, close ratio boxes.

Eew GM on the casting!
Still a great price, but I couldn't help myself.

I have sent you a PM. Thanks.

***UPDATE*** BMW log one sold.

Still have the GM one that does not have the holes drilled (which is good; you'll want those capped anyways for non-Motronic applications).

Nice thing to offer them up instead of just throwing it away. Could fix up another set.

On which GM model were they equipped by the way?

According to this:

Commodore B-Forum - Druckvorschau: welches 5-Gang Getriebe - Seite 2

That GM piece was from a European Opel Monza.

"But when people bought a big, luxurious coupé they wanted modern products as well, and Opel obliged, as soon the Getrag 240 (for the 2.5 engines) and the Getrag 265 (for the 3.0E), both 5-speed manual gearboxes, replaced the old 4-speed gearbox."

What do the holes do and how is it related to Motronic, just wondering.

 

[teahead]

I dunno. I assumed it was for motronic sensors, but it appears those are on the bellhousing.

Every 265 I've seen has those holes plugged, so not sure why have holes there in the first place to plug???

 

[HB Chris]

OK, not Motronic but still wonder what they are for. Early Motronic has a bell housing opening for a sensor to the flywheel, Motronic 1.3 uses the toothed damper on front of crank.

Still for sale! GOod to ahve a spare in case your Getrag has busted mounts.
