Hi
If you're careful and take the clutch slave cylinder out of your M47 before you remove it from the car then you can put it in the M90 when it's in. Saves disconnecting the slave and bleeding it etc.
Before you put the box in you will need to shim out the pivot ball a few mm. The plastic cover that fits on the pivot ball will probably have disintergrated so have a new one ready.
You'll need to reduce the length of the gearstick support and actuator link to get the gearstick in the right spot in a 240.
You will also need a spacer to fit between the gearbox output shaft and propshaft.
Depending on which box you have (the paper sticker telling you this is usually missing) you may want to strip the box down and weld the 3rd gear syncho support ring. I'd also change the oil while it's easy to get at.
There's several threads around detailing how to do it. I've probably forgotten a few steps. Take your time and allow twice as long as you think it will take.
