	Christ those sporty FSO's look nails! Very interesting that they had a K series in (amongst others), never knew that! That leaves them open for all sorts of mischief

	may not really be helpful but here: www.fsoptk.pl/forum2/viewtopic.php?p=367534 is a guy who used a Sierra box. I also found somewhere that you can use fiat 125,125p,124,lada 2101,2105,2106,2107 boxes but i think they were used in the "non K-series" types.

	Hello, I apologise for resurect this old topic but I need your help. I have a Sam car made in Poland and it should have a Rover 1.4 engine on it, rear wheel drive. The actual engine on the car is a BMW 1.6 and I need to ger the original 1.4 engine on the car because on the official papera there is the 1.4 Rover engine noted. From what I gathered it seems that the engine and gearbox are from FSO with Rover engine. My question, what gearbox was put on FSO with 1.4 Rover engine ? I’m not in Poland and I need to find another alternative because here I don't find any FSO for sale. Thank you all, Best regards

	I think the gearbox was derived from the early FIAT 5-speed, as found in the 124 sport and 125.

	I suspect Moggyman is right. Poland built the Fiat 125 and 126 under license from Fiat, and the original flagship (!) FSO had the Fiat two liter twin cam in it with a 125 box.
