Vauxhall - Type 9 Bellhousing

Does anyone produce these other than SBD? Would also need a new clutch combo so what are you Vaux engined guys using?

Yukspeed do the 2 different angles ones. Also list sumps in kit form on their site. Not sure if these are only for XE 16V though or not.

The omega boxes bolt straight to a C20XE, have good ratios and are pretty tough. Also hydraulic concentric clutch... very straightforward...

Remeber there are 2 different lengths as well as 2 different engine angles so 4 options in total.

You've got standard input shaft length and then V6 (+25mm) box length.

Most common will be upright and standard type 9 input shaft length. Then if you wanted to fit a V6 box for its ratios at a later date all you'd need is a 25mm spacer.

Pressure plate is the original vaux item and friction plate is Ford 1" spline jobbie. 2.3 diesel a common choice iirc

Edit: Noticed your putting the 1600 16v in so not sure on the situation with the flywheel/pressure plate/friction plate options compared to the 2.0XE

Standard ford spigot bearing needs to be hammered home into the end of the crank - from main dealer or motor factors etc.

yep wot he said, except that you can also use a std vauxhall spigot bearing which is the same size.

1600 16v is same bellhousing pattern but no idea on clutch bits





Retro RWD is the way forward...........automotive fabrication, car restoration, sheetmetal work, engine conversion retro car restoration and tuning
