my gearbox is in the standard possie, but I think it is tilited alittle bit down at the front to help the shift linkage.
BTW, have you seen my mate John (maintenance dude from Haden) round ya work lately. He said he saw ya car a few times and it's really nice.

Hi
Im moving mine 4 inches forward, Im going to tilt the tranny down at the front a bit as well for better sump clearance. My tranny is apart at the
moment and it showed signs of a lack of oil on 4th gear, too many blasts up the my test track the M5 maybe.
