adapter plate

[crazyscoot]

Can anyone shed any light on the adapter plates that are hard to come by. Long story short...... I met a guy today that specialises in custom made parts for performance Fords. He has specialised in cosworths and MK2 escorts for years and has a close link to a rally driver, Martin....somebody or other? While i was in the workshop he showed me round and some of the work that he's doing at the moment. I've never seen such big brake disks in all my life, They were f***in massive!!! and he's making the brake caliper mounts as we speak. As we were talking i was off on one thinking of all the parts he could make for the transit. I mentioned adapter plates for the gearboxes because i know that through reading this forum they are hard to come by. If anyone wants an adapter plate making Let me know and i'll see what he can do or i can put you in direct contact with him.

ive got one and im gonna look at getting come copies run off!!
should be able to get them profiled and then machined up!

another option (paul) 24vmk2 mentioned to me was modding a pinto/mt75 plate that might be an easy way! ive got a few pinto/mt75 plates so as soon as i get mine out of the van i'll offer it up and see if its possable!!

I still have got the 2.9 engine that come out of my smashed up tranny..but that has a auto box on it.(the engine and box came from a granada)I will have to try a pinto adaptor plate on to a 2.9 engine and see what has to be done to fit the V6...
