GTO Front Sump

I cannot use it on mine, but it may be possible on other conversions. I came up about a 1/2" short with clearance of the cradle. I've got a long bell 930 gearbox. I've already done my "final fitting" of gearbox and engine into the car and the cradle is "set". I don't have any more room to move the engine towards the front of the car. Someone using a short bell 930 or 915 box might have that clearance. The first picture is of the GTO front sump pan. You can see the little bump out in the pan that is almost out to the center line of the bolt holes. The second pic is looking at the bottom of the engine from an angle from the rear. The third is my cradle from directly overhead. If when you get your cradle position finalized (if you're using RH) and inside edge of the cradle lines up outside the center line of the bolt holes it will work. Hope this helps
