Ah, good for you,
Floor and tunnel out including the plate on the bulkhead for access to top bell housing nuts.

Might be useful if you popped over to AG, there's a few adults in there that need help.

@bog69 , really there's plenty of room to remove the gearbox nuts and bolts without removing the floor/tunnel, though this does make life easier. If you're not planning/needing to remove these, don't. There's plenty of room from inside the engine bay...climb in and position feet on chassis and/or straddle the engine + from underneath the Landy. Just be patient when doing this and apply penetrating fluid to the bolt/nuts the day before work start...

We’ve swapped it now. Cheers. Took the floor covers off. Went fairly easily. Few dramas with a fuel pipe underneath falling to bits (bad repair a few owners ago as knew last three) also fuel pipes not in the right place. Also alternator on new engine not the same type.
