hi just wondering if anyone knows what box will fit on the mondeo zetec lump to make it rwd as its going in my kit car? cheers

 

type9 sierra/cortina/escort fits straight on

ps www.locostbuilders.co.uk

 

Just make sure the type 9 is not a V6 type 9, as these have a different input shaft(longer).

Type 9, MT75 or T5.

I've fitted the later two. MT75 needs a modified release bearing. T5 needs a new flywheel.

 

iv got the type 9 box and the starter is in the wrong place

 

which side is it mounting on ? (when looking at front of engine) should be on the right handside
not sure on the difference in bell housings but any from a pinto powered ford will do the job

what kitcar is it going into btw?

 

when looking at the front of the engine it is on the top left and on the box it is on the bottom right and it is going in a robin hood kit car

 

When fitting a type 9 to the back of a zetec the starter location changes from std zetec position to the pinto position you will then find that 1 bolt hole from the type 9 wont do up as there is nothing there to bolt it to.

2 things you need to make life easy is the 1.8 escort flywheel that is listed on retro ford

Its been re-drilled to accept a pinto clutch or you could re-drill your own 1.8 escort flywheel if you have one.

and the spigot bearing

Did all this to a mk1 escort over the last month so i know it all works as it should do

 

is there 2 types of zetec lumps then because there is no way to move starter on this lump that i have the only thing i think i can do is find some one that modifies the bell housing for the type 9 box?
