I would suggest using the Omega gearbox and a Sierra rear diff, that way all you have to alter if the gearbox mounting. Then just get a prop shaft
made up that fits both ends. HTH Ray
To make a car go faster, just add lightness. Colin Chapman - OR - fit a bigger engine. Chippy

you will just need a propshaft making which uses the diff end for the ford and input from the omega may cos a little bit more but at leas you wont
need the adaptor plate
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

Speak with monsterob on the Haynes roadster forum, I think he has gone Vauxhall with a x20xev engine, I think basically the same.

Why do I have to make the tools to finish the job? More time then money.
