Surely it's gotta be a dog leg box.

Hi Matt,
I was going to get my 911 box rebuilt, strengthened and LSD fitted but Angus had this available. Its a Mag case, mechanical speedo drive and has LSD fitted, more importantly available off the shelf.
I've already got hold of most of the parts for the conversion, nice not to be having a custom flywheel machined and be getting away from £400+ clutch release bearings. Your engine was looking amazing by the way!
If you selling tickets for the first fire up then I'll have one please.
Rich

Decided to refine my engine gearbox installation procedure thanks to ebay.

Also realised that my engine looks like arse next to the gearbox so going to attempt some sort of DIY Cerakote makeover.
