Anyone have a Type 5 2 rod bell housing for sale?

[e42]

Hi, PH member General Banter has been most helpful with info on modifying the bell housing to take the adapter plate to fit the Type 9 gearbox to my Essex V6. My car is a Marcos GT, 1970 vintage with the original 2 rod overdrive gearbox

I’d like to source a bell housing to modify, rather than my own, to minimise the time the car will spend on the ramp for fitting.

Does anyone have one they would sell? If it helps with an ID from what I could see the bell housing has 3008E-7505A cast in.

Thanks, Dom

PS I know it’s a TVR forum but I’ve had 5 and am still a club member!

They come up on ebay regularly and cheap - missed this one though:

If you try the scimitar forum on Scimitarweb you'll probably get one quicker.

I thought to fit a late T9 to an Essex the Bellhousing is Granada 2.5 casting 72GB7505LA.
As far as i know that's what's on my 1978 TVR 3000S
