I was told the Corona Uni Joints are the same size as escort ones so I removed the Corona one and measured against the new Escort one I had and bingo.
 
Very happy indeed.
 
Now I just need a rear escort flange to bolt the prop shaft to the axle.  Anyone have one?
 
Cheers,

Matt,
 
Dont know if you've sourced a clutch yet, however I found this very useful.

I have the bearing sleave over the input shaft on the escort, I have the dellow bush in the cortina.

Cheers for the info Shaun,
 
Yeah, I have a mate who runs N/A Cossie engine with a celica box and he welded on a similar spacer to the input shaft.
 
I'll get a dellow spigot bush as it seems easier.  
 
What did you use for the thrust bearing?
 
Matt
 

The standard ford thrust bearing.
 
Shaun

Cool.
 
Matt

Still gathering all the parts for the celica conversion.
 
The Tailshaft is off getting balanced and I picked up a standard celica pressure plate which I 'll use for now but will get a hybrid clutch built for the race engine which shouldn't be too much longer hopefully.
 
I have the Dellow spigot bearing too and just need a speedo cable and i am pretty such sorted.
 
Cheers,

Hey Glenn, Yes you are correct.  That would rock!
 
Let me know how you go.

Picked up a 90 degree adapter to help the speedo cable fit better.
 
 

 

Where did you find that? What is it off?
I ended up with a 90deg adapter but it is more of a sharp bend than a true right angle.
Thanks Shaun

Hey Shaun,
 
Standard fitment on a Corona rt104.  Cost me $5.00.
 
Cheers,
