    A ga70 or ma70 non turbo w58 will fit best. Pretty much puts the shifter in the perfect spot. Tail shaft will need extending. R154 takes a whole lot of smashing on the trans tunnel. Shifter position also in a good position.

    Get yourself a MAPP Gas torch, a big hammer, remove the carpet from inside the car, and it will be a fairly simple and quick job.
