Doesn't a gearbox brace have to be fabricated also?......

As he said mind, all the 6 pot boxes sit 10 degrees out.
The 4 pot boxes sit correct and need no modifying of any part to fit! As if bmw already knew

if i was to use the m20 gear box would i be able to use my prop shafts or would i need to change them and am using a e34 525i auto engine if i was to use my m20 gearbox what spigot bearing would i have to use. . thanks for everyones help.

With m20 box you'd need an m20 spigot bearing and use a 325 prop mate
