Guys, just checking if anyone has used the Dellow Pinto Bellhousing with their Zetec to fit a Toyota Supra Gearbox conversion.?

Yes, That is exactly what I am doing.

Hi, If you have exactly the same bellhousing and a retroford sump have you bolted a starter motor up to it yet.?

No, and this is where I will differ. I have had a flywheel machined from chromoly billet to suite a pinto starter.

Thanks mate, I have a problem with mounting the starter motor, the bolt of the flange sits towards the back of the sump and it is impossible to mount the starter up. Apparently the Pinto sump is narrower than the zetec sump and this is the issue.

Why not get the sump notched out to clear the starter motor....failing that, buy a reduction drive starter motor.
Its a problem I had early on. I'm using a USA alloy Focus flywheel and a ZX3 Focus stage 3 6puk clutch, no mods and works a treat ;)

I have the Retro sump and dellow bellhsg, with std mondeo flywheel with ring gear seat machined 13 mm forward to suit std escort 2.0 pre engauged starter and didnt have any bolt issue, (not that I am complaining) I wonder what the differences are in these cases. I did have to use a 2.0 clutch fork spacer though, which wasnt used on same box/bellhsg in same car with 1600 fitted.

Dunno, going to mill something off the starter flange and see how I go from there.

Thats how Harland and Wolf sorted out Technical issues, just taken abit off at a time.

It's something to do with the way they did the Anglia Zetec sump....
