My Salisburys are offset back and front.
Bit of a story on this FC here,

Looks interesting ill have a read, ive always wanted to squeeze a Perkins 6 in a series you dont have it laying around still🤣
So you can get a sals offset to fit the front, as JD said not much point but interesting.
Cheers Jim

I cant remember what I did with the Perkins. I have a couple of 4-182 Perkins here. Years ago I put one in a Rangie 2 door. My wife sold it for a 4 door.
One here still has a series 3 box bolted to it.
I wouldnt reccomend the 6-247 now, the Isuzu 4BD1 is a better choice.
When I put the Salisburys in I widened the track 4 inches so its not your standard width any more.
