It will fit but you still need to change out rigger and the steering arms will just hit the sump on full lock that's my experience with it .....FC427....

somethings wrong steering should not hit .
are you using HR daglink or FC
check your front engine mount is not persished.
Are you running original box or something else.

but doesn't the HR draglink sit further back ?  i've found with red motors on full lock the draglink hits the sump but changed back to EK and problem solved, my motors aren't to far forward as i set them back as far as i possably can missing firewall seem by millemeters

may be a different case with a grey motor

I am using a HR crossmember,and steering arms including the draglink. Will the grey motor sump be alright or does it hit ?  Cheers Muz
