I have just aquired a all syncro red motor three speed gearbox and shifter from a forum member Graeme(Thanks Graeme!) what i want to know is,

(a)  Will it bolt straight up to the grey motor
(b)  Will I have to modify the gearbox tunnel to suit
(c)  Do I need to make up a crossmember for it
(d)  Is there any other mods i will need to do for this conversion.

Any feedback would be great as I hope to start this straight away, cheers

I Have a 202 bolted to the fc crash box so i guess they have yhe same pattern. no idea about the rest but i was told nothing exept the old box fits without mods which is why i had to find an old one when mine broke. hope it all goes well for you Smiley Smiley

Do CRS sell cross members to suit this application??  Also after awhile i may want to put in a powerglide, will it be any different for cross member or mods to suit?
