Just to give you an indication where the shifter comes out on a Classic Revival (different car to a Classic Roadsters). Here is a pic pf Sloth's Classic Revival with LS1 & T56. He had an engineering shop do the shifter relocation mod on the gear box (big $$$). As you can see because the shifter comes out a lot further forward it will need to lean back towards the driver slightly rather than leaning forward like the originals.

I agree with DV, Buy the engine and gearbox and make it fit. DV has done it lots of times so it can be done. I've seen a couple of his cars, simply magnificent.

Remember anything can be achieved with a big angle grinder, a welder and some patience.

Heres to V10 powered Cobras!
