It's the gearbox and the position of the gear stick that's dictating the position of the engine. Type 9 is the same regardless of what engine you bolt to it. Just measured, my bellhousing is sticking out into the engine bay by 55 mm in fact. Then both the reverse switch and the gear stick are both well clear of the tranny tunnel tubes.
