I think you'll be one of the first (if not the first) to try and fit an M40 box to an M20 engine.

Yeah just panicking a bit about christmas (money) but in long term I won't regret it, could I use first part of a propshaft from the 325 prop and connect it to my second part that I have in my 318?? So I'll use small case diff driveshaft ect ect?

Rear parts are the same, so no point in doing that.
Prop is balanced as a whole, so running mismatched halves will lead to a vibrating shaft and destroyed centre bearing supports.
