I guess not.
Looks like hte engine is offset to the drivers side. Is that right? What gearbox have you used?

As per MikeRJ's post limited on gearbox mating which is what makes the engine relatively so cheap!!
The Nobles used the ford V6, albeit turbocharged, dunno what box they used?
I've got an st200 fitted to a cosworth T5.
I would not buy one with 80k on it though, cars with that kind of mileage that haven't had the chocolate ford water pump changed will not be far
off going bang. The St24 motors are ten a penny at that price, a friend just paid £225 for a 22k mile engine.
Noble fit it mid-engine and therefore don't use a RWD box. Morgan fit them now using a T5 and have a bellhousing available to do it. Mine uses an
adaptor plate with standard cosworth t5 bellhousing and works fine.

No if anything it's just slightly to the passenger side. Gearbox is an MT75 which is a bit stronger than the Type 9.

That's a Cosworth V6 from Granada/Scorpio isn't it?
The Mondeo V6 uses a MTX75 gearbox, which is same as the zetec (im pretty sure). You would thing they would have a similar enough bolt pattern to use
the same bellhousing for a zetec to type 9.
Apparently its not so though!
