Supra 6 speed

Can anyone tell me if the V160 (i think thats what it is) 6 speed gearbox will fit in place of a W5* series box? I assume it will need a different adapter plate for the bellhousing but not sure on box size and dimensions, mounting, gearshift location and tailshaft. etc etc
Does anyone have any pictures of this box?

Not a chance - the 6 speeder is about twice the size and weight of a W box to begin with, and has no similiarity in any mountings at all. Sorry

This is more a curious thought than anything else.
Basically all I was dreaming about was.....
Has anyone successfully put a 6sp gearbox behind a 4A engine?

Didnt there used to be a (suitably expensive!) kit of guts for the T50 to make it into a 6 speeder?

And thats probably why i wont be looking at this gearbox for my project. Costs more than i paid for the complete running car.
Dont know of any 6 speed T50 gearset. Quaife made a dog box gearset for it and of course its mighty expensive.
