Mines a modified RB auto one by the looks of it. I'll take some pics later because its all out out of the car. I wonder where the speedo is driven from on the box because I can't see a sender anywhere on mine. You'll also have to do a bit of trans tunnel "massaging" to clear the oil pan on the glide too

When you get a glide from keas they give you a little metal tab to weld onto stock crossmember to fit glide, basic little thing woudn't pay $160 for it cheers darren
