Yes that yellow tape is the carb mounting position, the engine is a good way back and the transmission tunnel has been substantially widened to accommodate. There are a few challenges ahead, for example getting exhaust manifolds to fit.
I have been hunting for results in period, I have found a few for sprints and I have found some commentary on race entries but I have not found any track times or results. I think Ken Wilson raced it in 65 & 66 and it may also have been raced by Peter Cottrell, in one of the Gilbern books there is mention of Peter road-testing it.
