Has anyone here successfuly installed the flaming river manual R&P kit with a BBC? FR306KT

if so please post up, I am looking to convert to a manual R&P setup and this seems to be a pretty nice kit since it comes with the column, hardware, and everything necessary. Flaming river is not the best place to get advice from, I already tried so please let me know if anyone was successful in adding this kit on a BBC and what had to be modified to make it fit. Thanks guys!

I'm not sure why it would be any different than any other R&P kit. You have to somehow clear the oilpan and your headers. Your engine position will dictate how it fits to a large extent.

i was hoping someone here already did it so they can post all the details on what needed to be done to clear everything. Having info from someone else who has already tackled the job will save me a lot of time and headaches im sure.
