I did a search on ebay and found your adaptor, eventually worked out it was yours after getting a bit excited!

Not entirely sure what way I'm going to go, now that i'm not a student money isn't such a massive issue so considering buying a new adaptor and putting an end to the second hand hunt......

hope the move to france goes well!

cheers tom, just a thought, I am sure i read that the t25 bell housing is not as deep? so you could still use this with the right adapter to compensate for the 50 degree engine angle? I will look for where I read this, while ago now.

The main problem with the t25 bellhousing I think is where the starter mounted. It sits on top of the gearbox and theres no room for it because the tanks there. Think I'm going to stump up the cash and get one from kennedy for a vw engine. shame cos I've got a good ford engine, gotta start from scratch.

hope all is well
