[andytechno]

hi guys n gals

 

right ive just got a 12mnths tax and mot on my mk2 escort auto.ive been haveing problems with the gear box due to lack of oil.i filled it up but i kept having the same problem,i found out this morning that the oil is leaking,underneath where it fastens to the engine.

 

now what i want to know is will a box and bellhousing and all the rest offa manual 1300pop escort fit my mk2 1600 auto.a friends just bought a 1300pop that hes turning cosworth and hes got the 1300lump and box sitting doing nothing.so what i thought of doing is getting it offa him and droping the autobox for the manual,i just wanna know what else i need to do it.

 

 

atm ive got just pedel box.

the box will fit but you need the flywheel clutch and maybe

the prop i think the mountings are the same

You'll also need to fit a spigot bearing in the end of the crank to support the manual box's input shaft, clutch peddel/peddle box and a hole in the bulkhead for the clutch cable
