Alfa to Ford T9

We have the bellhousing. We have almost sorted the (Saab) slave cylinder. We still need a spigot bearing. O/D 23mm I/D 15mm. Any suggestions before I trundle off to the local stockists for some bronze to machine????

Trev Borg has one for a long shaft T9 box from a XR4i and I have one for a shorty shaft T9 from a crusty old Sierra of some sort. Thats it I think. Just the two bellhousings for now

I have a 2litre motor out of an '80s Guilletta kicking around that I've been thinking about, I'd need a flywheel as well though, as the one on it is for the transaxle set up so there's no clutch.

All the alfa engine are great, and very cheap cos the rest of the car tends to rot.

I can not see why more people don't use them.

I suppose once we have ironed out a few problems, there may be a bit more interest
