Default type 9 quaife straight cut dog box

Hi
Wonder if anyone can help?
I have a quaife straight cut dog box for the Yb engine in my MK2 escort. The guys that are fitting it are saying that something on the casing of the gearbox is stopping it being bolted to the bell housing. its a brand new bell housing and a brand new gearbox, will a quaife box fit to a standard bell housing or will i need a specific bell housing for the quaife box?

Might have wrong release bearing so you can’t bolt it up as face of bearing pushing on the fingers of clutch
