Clive Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 What box, but if it came out a vitesse (and is not a conversion, ie dolly single rail etc) it will go in.You need all the ancillaries too, rubber mount, metal mounting plate, speedo cable, angle drive for cable, switch/cowl, loom/relay for switch and propshaft etc. Be sure you have EVERYTHING as delays cost.Difficult to check without stripping or driving it.Clive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Bowling Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Make sure you get the right mounting plate for the overdrive D & J types use different ones.Also check your propshaft is the right one - OD shafts are shorter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Six Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Don't forget the need for a longer gear selector (if that's what it's called) with the 'T' piece on the end for the inhibitor switch, as well as the bracket to mount the inhibitor switch. I only say because I know someone who did forget just those items..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
