Ah I see. Only thing I would watch out for is that these boxes are pretty weak if you're planning on hooking it up to a Ford V8. I've seen people lose 4th gear at 400HP or about 300ft/lbs of torque.

I'm in the UK and will be fitting it to a 2 ltr 4 pot called a Zetec. So little chance of having 400HP and 300ft/lb unfortunately
