That looks a lot like a setup Rob Beere offers for E-Types, and similar to what I've seen built by guys who race XJSs. However, in so doing, they eliminate the factory trailing arms. It's curious that Lister retained them.
All the cage mounts were ripped to shreds on my donor, so I bought a used XJS-C diff truss to make sure that same engine/tranny/diff ratio doesn't do the same thing to JagZilla. It's the same solution Bradley Smith used when he had that problem with his twin supercharged XJS.

I have to make an observation here. If the machinist you've hired refused to attempt it because lack of documentation (I would think he could have simply made measurements to determine if it were possible or not, but that's beside the point) Do you really trust him to do the work?
My grandmother used to have a saying, "a man convinced against his will is a man of the same opinion still."
I would seriously consider giving Mr Bolles a crack at it.
