Gearbox mounted starter motor.

I'd like to pick the hive mind brains!
I'm currently putting together a gearbox adapter plate for my volvo v8 and bmw gs6 gearbox.

The starter motor is an issue. Does anyone know which vehicles have gearbox mounted starters. The one I know about already are the volvo xc90 and s80 v8s (my engine donor) and the mazda rx8. Anyone know anyothers?

Some links to my tin top project if you're interested.

Thanks in advance

What ring gear are you using?

Not determined that yet. I have the ring gear from the v8s flex plate as an option. Exploring alternatives
