T5 box to pinto belhousing
after a bit of googling i see that the bolt pattern on a T5 and a pinto bell housing dont match..
is there an off the shelf bell housing I can use?? wanna keep the pinto flywheel and starter, and the release fork same side if possible.

Only option is to drill the type9 bell housing or make up a plate

this guy made a tiger 'VAG to type 9' bellhousing fit a T5 box, might be worth asking him for some advice

or you could look into these:
http://www.rwdmotorsport.com/Bellhousings/Pinto-or-Cosworth-to-Borg-Warner-T5-Bellhousing/prod_15.html
they say 'machined to order' so I guess even if they don't have exactly what you need they may let you have it custom made (or at
least buy a half machined one or something like that...)

the one from rwd is what im after, thanks for the link!
may need to remove the exhaust side starter mount to make it fit past the exhaust as there is little room, but at least it exists!
