307 Ti SS1 built - I suspect the vast majority survive

I’m not sure the RX8 box would fit, the tunnel is deceptively small and moving the Engine forward is restricted by the inboard dampers (the K series had a different damper mounting crossmember with cutouts to clear the crank pulley!) - I have a box here (destined for one of my GT or GTE) and a few SS1 chassis, so I might measure up?
