yeah, perhaps an additional mount as well need to check the space first see what we can come up with for it.

ah see what you mean about gm map sensor. can run any really just need to set it up in ecu. just these are cheapish even brand new. i thought thats what i was already using but turns out the plug is slightly different. looks identical pretty much other wise. soon sort it.

gearbox number 5 off





pvs damage.





gearbox 5 and 6 split, not pictured, gearbox number which came to the rescue.





gearbox 4 bell housing to the rescue. looked a twat basically to drill for the speedo through gearbox 6 as its an electric one, casing from number 5 is a bit knackered but repairable, casing from 4 is spot on and has time serts in the bolt holes, casing welded up for strength on the webbing where the mount goes etc already only problem with that box was 2nd gear synchro had gone.



gave it a clean and a quick splash with hammerite seeing as it was going to look a bit crap.



mount to weld to that plate tomorrow. not really sure i have the space to add an extra pendulum mount in sadly. will investigate more tomorrow when gearbox is mounted back in.
