Update:

Got LET in tonight here are a few pictures











Clearance is a bit of an issue tho....







I'm using full CAM fitting kit with both the rear spacers on the inner edge of the rear mount (between the gearbox and mount), i have tried to shift it over as far as possible on the engine mounts, could anyone shine some light on this? (space by alternator and chassis leg + Top hat and brake pipes)

This is just a mock build atm, engine will be taken back out for rebuild and engine bay will be painted

Cheers Dale

TBH i had a multi V on mine in a face lift shell with loads of room. I have heard though that it is tighter on the pre face lift/8V engine mounted shells.
