If you running a Ford 5 speed Type 9 gearbox and you hand hits the dash every time you change gear I've found the something that may help.

Well, you only had to ask...

Seriously though, it does work a treat (although it hasn't been run in anger yet).

P.S. It's polite to name the author of a design...

Even easier use a MT75 'box. Just cut the gear linkage and craddle, lengthen it with some tube and weld up and you can put the gearlever just where you want, easy.

Or put the engine and box far enough back you don't have to bother at all

The engine and box far back as they can go.
I need it because I'm 6 4 and have harness so I can't strech to get it also my hand would hit the dash.

I'll put a pic up later.
