I'll jump in and ask, "why do this?"
The GT6 gearbox is already questionably strong enough for the destroked
TR6 mill, and the Spit box is weaker yet. Most people contemplating a
swap (by which I mean, everyone on the world except you Jim), tries to
shoehorn a TR6 box in, or do the Japanese 5-speed conversion being sold
out of New Zealand, or else John Esposito's Ford equivalent.
The Spit box won't last in a GT6 unless driven gently. And, the speed
gear ratios are wrong. You'll have to redline the thing to keep up with
traffic.
