size comparison between the 5psd mx5 box and the chev case T5
got the grinder out
T5 gearbox nose machined down to fit the std mx5 throw out bearing and fork
starting to mock up the tunnel, wanted to keep the heater core and centre console, which made it 'fun'
Tunnel done and passenger floor heat proofed to save the mrs shoes
Custom set up to utilise std mx5 fork and clutch setup
60mm+ too long on the input shaft so it was swapped for a firebird 26 spline unit and further shortened
box given the once over and finally reassembled, 2 weeks from show
new fancy clutch, all the bite
3 days before the show, got it all in and working, I will always say, bonnetless test runs are the best
