works out about Ł1500 for a stage 2+ box with id be changing up the gears every 2 secs and expensive if it does bust, mtx my mate had for 2 1/2 years no problems, rated well ans same price to fit and chassis rails modded so can be removed without removing the engine like present , may have a new paddle for you soon mate as i have to change clutch

The pinto and cosworth crankshaft was different aswell,different flywheels also.
The best thing to do is get a clutch plate for the car that the gearbox came from and try it,you only have to worry about diameter then.

so some of the pintos take the 205 block but have a diff stroke crank? learn something new every day lol

Kverna

iTrader: (1)

Every pinto(in the term of regular 2.0 carb or efi) have 205 block. Transit models also came with 202blocks.

Mark_w

I think he thinks you meant stroke instead of clutch diameter

dont know, il find out when the car gets mapped lol

Ginge !

mate the cossie engines are TOTALLY different to the pinto engines, just the blocks are the same, most other things are different due to it being a rally car engine

cossie engines are expensive for a reason, they aint just pinto bottom ends with skimmed pistons and a 16v head

thats why they take so much power is cause they redesigned them, its also why the bottom ends where 12k from fords exchange
