If you have to change the angle of the block, wont you end up with the same
problem as fitting an L-Series box to a Z-18et engine? i.e the gearstick
will be facing either the driver or passsenger on some weird angle? If
that's the case I'll probably stick to buying a
zed...............................................unless someone knows how
to correct this.
