It will unless it is 2.95 or 2.76.

With anything lower than about 3.44 you'll need to open out the bit that goes around the pinion (main shaft retaining plate??). But that 2 minutes with a half round file...

My experience is that this is only required for the 2.95 and 2.76. There is a different C-shaped retaining plate for that FD, but that one is not suitable for a remote change box. If i'm not mistaken, the original retaining plate works for 3.1 and 3.2 (which are A+ ratios that are not available in A version).

A 3.1 pinion hangs up on a "normal" remote C plate - but it only takes a few minutes to fix it.

Cheers, Ian
