Ginetta do it with junior car, it's a standard ford bellhousing. Don't know which one unfortunately though.

What year engine are you looking at? Zetec SE Sigma engine i assume?? If so then i think you will be needing a bellhousing from the likes of
Shawspeed

No, not the sigma (I think), the one from the Fiesta of around '97 vintage.

Yup thats a Sigma - just sold a Sigma to type 9 bell housing on ebay for a rather pitiful £99

I'm sure it goes onto the type 9 with an off the shelf bellhousing. Will try and find out.

Go one do it you know it makes sense!!! Very cheap engine to buy, very easy to tune and the bellhousing Ginetta use come from Shawspeed!
The bits are similar money to any other engine the beauty of this engine is it is K series weight. mark
Any other information needed drop me a line, there is not much i do not know about this engine
