24v Cossie 2.9 into a Mk3 ..... starting out ...... :)

Luke, i guess so.... the ratios may be different inside, but probably not....

... now just to figure out the header pipes.......

Also i noticed that the V6 Police transit engine mounts are extended back to the adapter plate to provide additional supports for the adapter plate and hence gearbox....... I am not sure if this was necessary or over-engineering...?

cheers

You used to see that setup on loads of cars at one time, but there dont seem to be any need for it anymore, no idea why

true the ratios may be different - there are 2 types of MT75 anyway, but i doubt ford would bother with another for such a limited run
my mounts have the extended bits too the mt75 diesel ones have them too - it is a known weak point on the ally transit mt bellhousing, but with the extra strength in the adapter plate its probly not necessary - if it was it wouldnt be difficult to make something speperate to give extra strength

down pipes- i was wondering about getting some blank flanges and pipes and making my own - i'd quite fancy having a go as its something ive never done before but it's a cross that bridge when i come to it situation
