Peter,
I forgot to grab the pic today but I'll send it tomorrow. In the pic there
is a DR30 L24 Stumpy box sitting along side of the Pintara box. The
interesting thing is the distance from the front to the rear mount is
identical and exactly the same design. I didn't realise how short the extn
housing is on a stumpy box, there is a nice RB30DET in the background, nfs
though.
