Looking for an alloy bellhousing for type 9 to Ford 4 pot (CVH/silvertop - LHS starter motor).

I'm after the same thing!

Tiger racing seem to be the cheapest if you're buying new at about £215, but I'm waiting for them to respond on whether they're a direct match with the Sierra cast item.

RS2000 bellhousing can be had a bit cheaper. I'll have a genuine one for sale shortly, as it doesn't fit in my chassis!

I’ve recently bought an alloy Type 9 bellhousing from Tiger. I can confirm it’s a direct replacement for the standard OEM cast iron Type 9 part. You will need to drill the clutch fork pivot pin hole a little larger, but otherwise it fits like a glove.

Thanks for the info. Did it not come with the clutch arm pin?

No worries!

Ooh. Good question... I don’t think it did. I remember drifting it out of the iron one.

Annoyingly, I gave an RS2000 bellhousing to a friend when I moved into a house without a garage, many years ago!!!

I’m interested at the right price
