If you use the proper gearbox (MT75) then you have to make the gearbox
cross member.
If you're trying to use a type 9 2.8 box which is a bad idea, it should fit.
If not, I'm guessing you have a 4 speed shell. In which case - nothing fits.
You will need to make a cross member and fixings to the floor.
