    You use the MX10 engine mounts. (Correct me if I'm wrong GT )

    You didn't mention gearbox in your first post, but if you use the MX10 gearbox (which will bolt up), then of course you can use the MX10 gearbox mount. Otherwise we need to know what box you're planning to use...


    Btw you'll need to put your MX10 Mid sump on the 7MGTE engine (which should have a mid rear sump)...

    Cheers

    W58 or R154 would be the manual boxes to use. R154 is stronger but a lot more expensive.

    GT should be able to let us know what clutch pedals fit.

    Making one from am brake pedal would be difficult.

    gianttomato, the frist person to respond

    I'd suspect MX1x, MX2x? might be the places to look.

    Maybe (big maybe) RA2x, RA40?

    RT142 etc uses the newer style clutch master and I wouldn't expect it to fit...
