Reply to: RE>Conversion Components in NZ
Hey, thanks for that info, Chris. Judging by the 2T application and the =
ratios,
that 5 speed definitely looks like the T50, except 4th must be a typo.... =
I think
it should be 1.00.
Sounds like a definite lead, for anyone interested in mating a twink to a =
T50.
Actually it appears that twink to T50 is *exactly* the conversion that =
Phil
Babcock has in his Elan, except that it was accomplished by other =
means...
rather than using a custom bellhousing, an adapater plate for the Lotus
bell housing was fabricated. Phil, what does your bellhousing adapter =
look
like exactly?

I heard back from him. He has bellhousings to go from the
Ford 4 cyl 2L to either the Toyota Supra or 2T gearbox.
He's never done an Elan. He mentions both the Escort
and Cortina, and will fit a 7 1/2" clutch for the 1600.
Someone who knows more about the details here should probably
contact him - price for the conversion
kit less gearbox is NZ$897 plus shipping.
The 2T 5 speed ratios are
3.58 2.02 1.38 1.1 0.86
