5 speed gearbox wanted

I am looking for a type 9 or Toyota box to fit a Pinto in a Mk2 Escort. At this point I am looking for everything for the upgrade.
Thanks Dave

    I will have a 2.8i version of the Type 9 (stronger) end of next week, you will need your own bellhousing though (all 4 cyl 4 speed ones should fit)

    Advice is the input shaft needs replaced as it is too long, not sure if it can be machined.
