Today I recieved our RWD motorsport Bellhousing, Lightened fly (which is bloody light, not that I have a standard Duratec one to compare to, but I have a 1600 CVH one which is considerably heavier), Release arm, pin, bearing etc. and clutch.

Not a cheap conversion this duratec, but to be fair the £200 for the bellhousing is a bargain for the work involved. Hope it all works together ok. I know it could be done cheaper, but we opted for the safe straight forward route, lets hope it is!

Cost so far for 2.3 engine, ZX9R's, various ancillaries from a broken 2.0 mondeo and all of the above approximately £1000. The only remaining sizeable items to be bought (as far as i know) are thermostat, belt tensioner and megajolt.

nice, any pictures of the progress?

i have also know it is expensive, i just have the clutch, and somethink to do with the sump, and that is all i have left apart from fuel pumps, and other little bits.
