Will an LT77 box be OK, does anyone have a bell housing?

Seriously, that is one nice bit of kit! I've heard one running close up, it's a sound that can make a grown man cry!

Hi Pete,
Pilgrim say it will go into a Sumo but you would have change the rack to a P100 and an LT77 box would be ok but you would have to use full synthetic oil, I think a sherpa R380 bellhousing may be ok, I am going now cos I keep hearing V8 engine noises and a man in a white coat is at the door.
