flywheel housing plate
jimbona2 - 3/2/08 at 03:47 PM

just realised I havent got a flywheel housing plate, probably not the cleverest thing to leave it open to the elements with rocks and all that potentially going in..

has anyone got a flywheel housing plate going for the 2litre silver top zetec?

let me know how much!
cheers

I made one out of sheet aluminium using the outer profile from the bellhousing and the inner profile / clearance from the original mondeo plate. Neither the sierra plate or the mondeo/escort will be much use to you I don't think.

^^^ as above even the sierra cover will leave a gap.

easier to make one

I got one off ebay and it was actually off a five speed capri. A fair bit needed to be cut out of the middle and another bit welded into close a gap on the drivers side. The original one off the mondeo is a different shape altogether to fit a different box.

Never took a photo before I fitted it I'm afraid. I also had the flywheel on already so I had to cut it in half. Rescued attachment enginewithboxrr.jpg

I just made up three seperate 1.5mm alloy plates to fill the gaps .
