Your Options:

Ebay (expect to pay £350), GM spares or Corvette ZR1 (Lotus £500+)

If you find just a box, I can lend you a housing to copy for either option.

Might look at uprating the R28 with bigger main bearings

Is the 265 from a BMW the same as a monza box.

Dont know if this can work but the manta 20gte also uses a getrag box its not a 265 but could that bell-housing be used with the BMW box,as far as i gather the bell-housing will fit the carlton engine as this is how the manta boys fit the 24v to the Mantas.
