Default transverse cossie engine

i know someone who wants to put a cossie engine in the back of his car
its mid mounted transversly at the moment and he needs a gearbox to suit the cossie engine
he knows its gonna need a bit of fabrication to fit in but it doesnt bother him about that

has he also considered that there may be lubrication issues?

volvo s80 uses a pretty torquey straight six engine mounted transversely, maybe the gearbox off that is suitable?

evo boxes have been used before but would obviously need modification.
