If one were building a Cut 7, do you think it is important to use a 3.8 with the associated gearbox, or a 4.2 with an all sychro box/

Thanks...

CUT7 was a number plate and was attached to three e types. First was chassis 860004 I believe which was pretty much standard until Dick Protheroe bought it. The next one was bought as bits direct from Jaguar and built as a racer and crashed (and repaired). The third was a light weight of sorts I believe....all three were 3.8 cars and presumably had a moss box although not standard gear ratio's I'd imagine....which one are you recreating....they are all different?
