's a bit academic, anyway, bloke wants too much moolah for the motor.

Plan B now, I know for a '91 SW with no engine and box, and mine has an
engine and box, and if I'd have got the one I referred to, I'd have had to
do a gearbox swap anyway.

Still be nice to have the 110 T-box ratios, the BW one is really too high
geared for the 3.5 and in for the motor, especially if it gets 33x10.5
tyres
on it.
