the left hand side sits lower than normal which your going to pivot around (i.e. making the right hand bracket to lift that end of the gearbox up to return engine to normal able). As that left hand side is staying the same its going to make the whole thing taller. Dont know about you but my charge carrier is very close to the bonnet as it is and cant afford to go any higher. Im not knocking what your doing as im dying to find a halfway house between hacking my car about to fit a st170 or similar and having a reasonably 'easy' fix.
