I have chopped sump to a height of 150mm and that sits 25mm lower than chassis. I have moved engine back so that thermostat is about 5mm from bulkhead so I will now cut bulkhead tube to clear that. To get clearance for gear lever at this initial position there is about 20mm each side of starter casing and clutch casings on bellhousing to tubes U7/U8. Any chance you can tell me how much you lowered yours?
cheers

off the top of my head i know i choped around 30mm out of my alloy sump and then set the engine so the gearbox was in the correct postion and set the engine as low as i could
