You need to use exactly the same gearbox. All the 6N ones are the same but the ratios are all different.

Mmmmm, don't want to step on anyones toes buuuut, my gearbox recently blew (engine code APQ) and I now have a gearbox from an AEX coded engine, as the previous guy said the ratio's will be different (mine are, for the better I might add).
