Basically ford own the patten for the fly so you can only get this part from them, for a fly and clutch your looking at around £600 in parts, £250 in labour.
I spent £800 on having an aluminium lightweight fly fitted with a stage 3 clutch instead, i fitted the clutch myslef and it took me 2 days and its a job im familiar with.
U most be joking mate a day what u taking the engine out or something? Ok there was two of us but its just a front wheel drive gearbox it took us around 2 hrs gearbox out and in got the clutch from ford its a exchange unit some people must just be faster than others nice gearbox to do the worst thing is the startermotor if i recall.
