The Ka starter is on the back and the CVH needed it on the front, this was the quickest and easiest way of get the starter in the right place without messing about with taking the box apart.

What I don't know is if you could then use the CVH flywheel and suitable clutch and if the input shaft on the MTX box would fit the clutch?
I don't think the clutch would accept the mtx input shaft as would be bigger. Think mondeo mk2 diesel bell housing onto my frs box is the answer. I hope so anyway lol
