Thanks guys the frame was Kevs idea just rolled it off the lorry onto the frame
Dunc. it will have a support under the box , I am cutting down the stock X member as I only have one bolt hole on each side left , I had to remove the upper frame from the tunnel on the inside to make room for the box , only had to cut a small hole so far in the side of the tunnel to get gearbox in will post some more pics later

yes john i can see that. what i meant was i would have kept all the bracing that follows the tunnel just pushed it higher up if you can under stand me i dont think that would interfere with anything inside the car...

yes i have fitted a few of them 4 speeds and its tight,

Flipping hell John, it only went in for a bit of bodywork.

Really would like to go down this road, with a late V8 lump.

Good work lads, cant believe you got Dell doing a bit

Wow, John! That looks a bit different to last I saw it! Haven't been on for ages, so missed a lot of this work, but it looks like you guys will be proud wit the results.

You are motivating me to get my arse in gear.
