Hey fella's just wondering if anyone out there has pictures of how the linkage runs off the pan on there 2 speeds im running a pro ratchet b&m shifter too so its got the b&m cable too and im just wondering if you guys shortened the cable or just looped it on top of thr glide.also keen too see how much people have pannel beated the tunnel. Thanks in advance.

if its too much trouble for u ill gladly swap u my mx7! ill pop round an hav a look when i get a chance

Ha ha just pull the one out of your vk dude lol i know how too connect them but im missing some parts for the linkadge just want too see what bits and im keen too see how much people have pannel beated the tunnel too .

u wont need to panel beat the tunnel-i mean i did not for my one- depends -if u run a jw bellhousing (usa aftermarket bellhousing) u will 100% need to panel beat the tunnel- as it is thicker in all area's

Hav eyou got pics CWRECK im still keen too see the linkage ect and also are you running a b&m shifter did you get your cable shortened or just lap it over the box?

Cheers for that cwreck i never knew that you could do that with google. Still show us some pics if any of ya's have any. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ill take some pics of mine on the weekend for u, i dont think my trans tunnel has been beaten, not sure if its a difrent size to a VL? but mines got some custom welded linkage thing goin on lol i bought the car with it installed

Found the part i was after rocket has them the part no is bm70497 if anyone else need it in the future its the part that supports the cable off the oil pan. Still keen too see some pics fellas. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

finaly took some pcs for u man not very clear lol but u can see its just a rod welded up let me know if u need some more/clearer pics Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

lol i would suggest youve got at least one transmission leak there somewhere man. from memory of a mate doing this conversion he did panel beat part of the tunnel where the bellhousing is because of the size of the bellhousing he used.....not sure if it was a jw bellhousing.......but it did take along time to get hold of one.and yes the bracket your chasing for your b and m shifter comes from rare spares. ill see if i can get hold of him and see if he took pictures of his conversion, not sure tho cause it was ages ago

yeh its a lil leaky lol im hoping its just the oil pan, its just a slow leak, ill get to it one day :P

yeah there is some minor massaging involved nothin serious wouldnt even worry about it as long as it fits its all good

I must have the other bell housing that is thicker every were cause i had to use my persuasion sledge to ''massage'' the trans tunnle but i now have about 20mm clearance all round the box now so no cracking the case on hard launches because it smashes the body. Ive gotta get some spray putty befor i put the box back in just to hide some of the dents. Youll find the main area that needs thrashing is around the shifter rod as that hits the body when its stock.
