Chaps,
My first post, thanks for letting me tag along. I'm considering popping in a toyota T50 gearbox in a mk. II ford escort panel van running a 1600 crossflow. How involved is the process? I've tried finding links on the forum but have come up short. All advice gratefully accepted. Cheers. |

Bell housing, clutch plate, pressure plate, modified thrust bearing, speedo cable, modified cross member should be about it.
Someone probably sells it all. |

I'll let you know...once I pick up the car. I've just recently bought the panel van and I'm a little green behind the ears about it all. So, I'm doing my research.
I'll let you know once I go get her. |

That be the one, but I got windows along the side. '81 model.
So, do you think it's worth effort? |

yes ..do a lot of research about this power train set up you like
these escorts did have a 2 ltr motor fitted the diffs are very good 1600 cross flow a grunt motor with a 4 speed box its still ok still looking at this question of the T50 http://www.gearboxconversion.com/Toyota_T50.html with the T50 box you might need a custom drive shaft built .... not sure myself . you might want a brake upgrade later . .only drums at the back small disc at the front and struts set up
