Bellhouse Adaptors
scootz - 5/3/09 at 02:38 PM

Can anyone recommend a company for adapting bellhouses to suit non OE applications?

I want to mate an Audi Bellhouse to a Borg-Warner T5 box.

There are a couple of companies in Holland make bellhousings to mate the Audi 1.8T to the type 9. Maybe they can assist.

One is Tiger Sportscars (Holland)

I take it this ones for the TVR then

out of intrest how many audi V8's have you got ?

Two!

Tiger got back to me to say they only do them for 4 cyl VAG engines... pretty sure the bellhouse pattern is the same for all modern VAG engines???

Certainly know the 01X / 01E box fits right up to the V8 and that gearbox is used predominantly for 4 cyl engines!

Geert Swaans (alphax) does a nice kit that mates the Audi 20v lump to the MT75 box.

Not the box you're after i know, but could be a cheaper alternative.

Geert's currently living in Scotland, so is fairly close if you need anyhelp with installing one of these engines.
