Did the motor use the existing motor mount locations?

This looks like it would only work for a series 2 (non-2.0L) and 2a gearbox. The series 1 has a different bolt pattern on the bellhousing. and the series 3 slave cylinder would interfere with the v8 engine block.

kiss your gearbox goodbye with this setup. Not even going to talk about half shafts...
