Wow there is plenty of space around your gearbox.

Looks good and well worth a dummy fit

its another big step in the right direction thats for sure im just waiting on the bits to finish the prop shaft then i can finish the exhaust ,then i can paint the engine bay, underside,& boot area .which is another big step forward again because then i can build it up for the last time.
