Trial fitting the Zetec and gearbox
I knew in beforehand that it would not fit, but still I could not resist trial fitting the Zetec and mt75 gearbox. I forgot that it would not be possible to lower the engine and gearbox mounten together.

The oil filter needs to be removed and replaced by a smaller version. The engine supports (made for a Crossflow engine) have to be cut, as well as the main diagonal strengtening beam. After fitting the engine new diagonals will be added.

Engine liberated!
I could lift the engine and gearbox out very easily.
Note that I have labelled all the connectors from the wiring loom.

Fuel tank - Triumph Spitfire
After some trimming with an angle grinder and some persuasion with a hammer it fits perfectly in the boot of the car. This will save time and money from making my own.
