Came across Yukspeed who seem to have a whole bunch of handy bits to make conversion a little easier and ? cheaper. Try Yukspeed

i.e. Bellhousing £140 (knew I'd seen a seven degree bellhousing somewhere. They do a seven degree weber manifold to go with it!)

Why would you want a 7º bell housing and manifold ?

[Longboarder]

Personaly I wouldn't. I referred to that on an old post. As the engine is made to be mounted at 7 degrees in the donor there are two choices for mounting in a kit or escort etc. Mount at 7degrees with same sump and use bellhousing to keep gearbox upright or mount upright and change sump. Yer pays yer money either way. They do an upright bellhousing at £140.

Yes, but mount at 7º and the engine becomes taller, that's why the upright one was made, for us with the little cars.

 

 

This is a photo of the Vauxhall engine in Andy Cambells 2B, I will be putting a page with others on the NW website later.

There is now a link on this first page of the NW web site, that will take you to where Andy is at the moment with his engine fit.
