This is probably a stupid "do a search" type question, but I hope someone will take pity and just give me an answer. I've been off Turbobricks for a few months since I moved to rural Alaska.

My dad's mechanic is a Mustang guy, and he was asking my dad about T5 adapters. My dad speculated that he might be wanting to put a B230FT into a Mustang. Anyway, I know John Parker still sells them, but I thought maybe some other folks had gotten T5 adapters to market.

So the question is: what vendors are there that sell T5 adapters now?

And do they handle the bellhousing mods as well?

Yeah Dale sells one http://www.avalancheperformance.com/. It's not listed yet, but you can e-mail him about it, great guy to deal with. It uses the stock volvo throwout bearing/clutch fork rather than having to modify the clutch fork to use the ford throwout. Couldn't be happier with mine.

Lovin' mine too. Plus, Dale's adapter gives you the option of mounting the engine upright too.

i'm pretty sure Dale and John Parker offer them so you can mount the motor straight as well....
 
if you or your dad has access to a machine shop, make your own.....$10 in material :)

Yeah, I think I lost the email from them but I have the info in a CAD file. I'll find it.

T5 bolts are the outer ones, from dimensions given to me by Tremec. M46 bell bolt dimensions are measured by me with CNC mill.
