And the shift rail. As I said before, as presently maufactured the McLeod adapter plate (and most likely a standard Chevy bellhousing) won't work without modification.

The McLeod modular bell would also clear, but either solution requires the use of a hydraulic clutch linkage. In a car with a very serviceable mechanical linkage, that might be a negative and certainly adds to cost and complexity.

Or the McLeod adapter kit for about $250, plus a crossmember from the vendor of your choice (ATS and BMR are probably the best bets) or make your own crossmember. So far as I'm aware, CC5S doesn't sell parts (e.g., cross-members) independent of transmissions.
