OK, I can make an adaptor plate if it's just a flat sheet of 6061 etc. Could not find information on the XF/EL/AU box lengths - will ask in falcon section.

the mis aligned mounting point also presented little issue - the solution is a standard ford gearbox mount - see pic. Ive just bolted a piece of flat plate to it to accept the later model T5  mount and it fits straight up!





Any luck with working out what car this bracket came from? Im having a hard time finding one!
 
Thanks, Jake
