It's hard work to do a proper job...
You have to make the mount yourself and if you use an F20 gearbox you don't need to change the gearbox mounts. If you use the F25 that will probably come with the engine you will have to use the same mounts you use when fitting an F28 6 speed gearbox. You can use 2.0 conversion driveshafts and hubs...

Beardy said it does. Other people have told me they don't. I would listen to Beardy though as a lot of cars which have these engines and standard manifolds seem to have mystery steering rack proplems
