E36 gearbox fitting

[AdamGardner]

I am trying to use an e36 gearbox as i want a direct top gear, the linkage off the back of the box is slightly different. Wondered if anyone has already done this and knows which bits to use??

I've just fitted an E36 325 gearbox onto an M20 engine and it lined up fine using the E36 325 prop shaft and E36 linkage, although the linkage probably needs some tweaking as side to side, the gates are very close!
