Hi
You might, but the main advantage is the lower first gear and diff ratio (same diff ratio as a 1.3 series 3 but with a lower 1st gear), and suspect it might just be easier to have the front wheels spinning away.
All the best
Keith

Good man, i think the 145 box has a flatter lower panel to it, so ground clearence is better & the race boys like them.

Hi
The 145/6 gearbox sump plate is cast ribbed alloy. Probably makes the gearbox more rigid and possibly cools the oil a touch.
However think the 145/6 synchromesh is meant to be even weaker than the 33 and not sure it is still available.
All the best
Keith
