When fitting the box did you guys have problems with the bell housing hitting off a lip on the bottom of the bell housing, if so did you just grind it off? I dont really want to grind it as it looks as if it would loose some strengh, ive tried braying it down but part i need to move has the weld for some sort of power steering mount which i dont really want to touch.

Cheers

i did'nt have to touch anything with the m-tec kit, it all went it like a dream apart from having to tap an m12 tread into the gearbox for the back gearbox mount
