Good stuff dude, helpful info
cheers Dean

here's what was needed for the 5 speed conversion (it was a while ago so if i miss anything i'm sorry)

1. tunnel massaging - not much just enough to clear the clutch fork as it's a little higher than the b10 box. it will work tho don't be afraid to give the tunnel a good whack!
also a little indent was needed for the reverse switch

2. original gearbox mounts - i took mine out it made it alot easier to install and remove the 5 speed.

3. Rear gearbox mount - i adapted a sunny gearbox mount and made it wider incorporating plates to have the mount bolt onto the floor pan in the footwells I also put plates on the inside to give it some strength.
If you know anyone that can weld or if you can do a decent job this is easy.

4. clutch cable had to be altered - I used an old cable from a 1200 for a while which was spaced out at the firewall with washers but once i had the lenght right I had a new cable made up.

5. tailshaft - here's where things get a bit hazy cant remeber if i had to have it shortened don't think i did

It took me about a week of after hours tinkering to get it in a driving but well worth it. hope i didn't miss anyhting important

good luck!

not sure about coupe but i think youd be able to bash out a little section for the switch to fit in

I was told that the standard switch position
on a 60a wont fit in the tunnell-confirm
or deny pls ( i have a coupe)

reverse light dont need with a wagon
rear cross member needs to go forward 2 inches
shifter will be the same

63A comes hydrolic and cable from memory, its basically an L-series box with an A-series bell housing.

Out of interest how did you go with:
(A) reverse light switch fitting
(B) rear crossmember
(C) shifter position in the car
(D) all of the above

yeh that looks like an L i think all the A boxs were cable and not hyd

LOL! If you click the link, i think this is what he means by hydraulic. i think this is an L
not an A but

You don't need to pull the motor out just the box so you can get a decent swing at it,or as i said,leave it all in and cut a square section out from inside with an angle grinder and build a nice alloy box over the top
