Problem is Paul, it's a 4 speed with pistol grip shifter. Don't really want to modify it but it may be the only way.

Floor switch is the only way to go. They usually supply a dipped/main beam type floor switch with the overdrive. :?

They do when it's an auto, but they supply a latching push button switch for a manual.

Gonna check this again tomorrow, think it was about 2700 rpm at 70. Gears are 3.91. I checked the speedo with the sat nav and it's reading 1mph low which is good enough.

You'll be fine with the gay 3;23s , just think yerself lucky you don't have to crank the sounds up when doin 80 mph @ 4500rpm , or 130 mph @ 7000 rpm. :shock: (motorway)
