Read a few posts with people mentioning this on a CVH block, does anything at all even line up? Sounds like such an odd ball setup.

I've heard of a cvh with a mk1 frs box, not a mk2, they used a early front starter mtx bell housing, steel zetec flywheel with sleeves in the bolt holes to bolt to the cvh crank and frs mk1 clutch kit
I can't remember if they had to mod the bell housing as they was thinking of swapping the internals from the frs into a mtx casing

Yeah, it was a post about nms where I read it. Can't see the point if you've got to use a custom housing as you might as well use any box out there, surely the FRS isn't the best there is?

The weak link in a mk2 frs transmission is the dual mass flywheel, ditch it for a single lightweight flywheel and matching clutch and the above figures are possible
And when the big boys are over 500lbs of torque means its the strongest box for has ever used or produced
If a kit came out to fit one its the only conversion I would spend a few grand on because I could break any other set up

Fair enough, sounds like a plan. Isn't the pug evo on a mk1 FRS box though? When I went to constella to see what was involved it sounded a ball ache but as said, its taking the power.

if this is for the 320bhp cvh your building then all you need is a front starter mondeo mtx box as it bolts straight to block and you can have the choice of hydrolic clutch and normal speedo drive plus you can drop a atb straight in if wanted
