Post Type 9 Gearbox

Hi all,
I have a Ford Type 9 gearbox and want to put it in my Mk2 Escort. What do I have to do to do in order to use it. I know I can still use the clutch, starter motor and tail shaft but are there any modifications that i have to do and if so what are they?

Cheers

V1nn1e72,
You need to modify the gearbox cross member and the hole for the gear lever to come through the floor.
