    Are you just mating it to the series box? Or thinking of going the lt77/r380 route?

    I guess for now it will be mated to the series box...however should a suitable box come along...and when I can afford to buy it...then I might change it.

    Cheers Gary,

    I believe I have a 6cyl gearbox so not quite such an easy job. Clearing the garage out at the moment to make room for swapping over.

    Hopefully make a start on the Landy by the weekend...weather and work permitting.

    I have changed over the bellhousing on a 6cyl gearbox before to a 4cyl gearbox to suit a Holden conversion plate. Not that big a job when you already have the motor out, there is a bit of a knack to keeping the shafts in position when swapping them over.
