Just to let you know, got the gearbox on and have run it a few miles and is better than original box. I think I got used to the whine in first gear, so maybe a blessing in disguise that I changed it.
Took five attempts to get the thing on, don't realy know why. Did it old school in the end with masking tape around a shaft and fine tuning by fingers through the slots on the pressure plate. To be positive, I can, lying on my back, now hoist the gearbox from my chest into position faster than anytime in the last ten years.

Well done, both on getting the job done and in finding an unusual form of weight training! :D

I still have a box spanner wound with masking tape to locate the clutch in what was most likely an Hillman Imp in about 1980.
