Default R/H drive footbox photos please

I have had a good day today, got my engine in the engine bay in my Hitech. However i seem to have a problem with the new foot box supplied which is r/h drive. I think this may be from a small block car and is leaving little room for the hearder to go on. does anyone have any photos please of a r/h drive big block footbox. i can look at please, which would be most helpfull before i take out the saw

many thanks Adrian

nick thank you for the photos. the rear axle and drive shafts are made. i have the engine in and the correct angle to the diff. / prop. the drive shafts look good being 1410 and the 1350 end does not look out of place now its sprayed black.



cobrakiwi can you please send me a photo, i think i have a small block foot box.


i can see why most cobras are lh drive, it seems so much easier with the lh drive set up the way the engine is layed out.

Is this a HiTech or Hi Tech S.A. car? I may have some pics depending on which one.

I have a couple 289 footbox pics from HiTech. Don't know these help or not.
I don't seem to have any 427 footbox pics, sorry.
Larry

Larry thank you

the one i was sent was the opposite of the one you have a photo of. mine has the indent in it and is the same shape . so i have a 289 r/h footbox. It does not fit a big block, well mines a 351 c but not far off the same width.

cobrakiwi could you please send me a photo of the foot boxes you have. i am certainly interested where the steering column exits the footbox, as it looks like i need to trim this area.
