can't imagine why you can't fit the rods in, the factory Peugeot and Citroen sport rally cars used the BE3 box with an adapted standard shift rods

 

the cable shift stuff just bolts on, you will need to swap the top arm that is secured by a pair of roll pins, but I have read from others doing a BE4 conversion that the mechanism fouls the steering arms or bulkhead IIRC, that is with the standard location however, god knows where your gearbox will be on an XU engine!!

the exhaust and steering rack is in the way to fit the rods,do you know what you have to swop the top arm from
