New member from South Africa. I will be installing my crossflow this weekend to a ford type E gearbox. ASyone know what size bolts are needed to the gearbox and engine? Since i bought things seprately I don't have any bolts.
type E...? never heard of it
I think its a version of the "rocket box".
The Type E is the one fitted to four speed Sierras, and the later 1.6 and 2.0 Capris and Cortinas. It's almost a direct replacement for the Type 9, except the mounting point and gear lever are a bit further forward.

IIRC the two top bolts that screw into the cylinder block are 3/8" UNC. The type 9 bellhousing bolts ,the ones the go through the block and screw into are 10mm . The E type bellhousing could be either? HTH
