The v160 sucks actually....if your going to spend that much, might as well at least get a t56 or depening on what the car is for maybe even a gforce 5spd and be done with tranny issues all together

Well a T56 isn't a bad tranny but If your looking for cost effective and short term use... Not to mention they were never built for high RPM'S. Then That would be your tranny. We all have our own opinions and preferences at the end of the day. I'll stick with the supra trans

How much was your v160 setup with clutch and all?
Liberty or gforce will face plate a t56 and the cost will still be well under 3k.
I went straight for the gforce clutchless just to not have any worries.

Hate to bring an old thread back but does anyone know if there is someone producing bellhousings like these anymore? Trying to source a k24 to r154 bellhousing. Im guessing this guy isnt around anymore...

There are adapter plates for k-series to Miata, BMW, and S2000 transmissions now. Kmiata makes the first 2 and I can't remember who makes the third.

Hi Mark,
I’m new to this site. I’m looking at an engine swap in to an mg midget and I’m considering the Honda k20 with a w58 gearbox and your interface plate might make this viable however I could do with some dimensions. Can you provide me some dimensions so I can see if the engine and gearbox line up in the engine bay and gearbox tunnel.
Thanks
Dominic

Re: K24 RWD Mcgregor Lotus 7
Hi Guys,
I am building a Lotus 7 replica with a K24 motor.
Using a McGregor Motorsport Bell housing that mates the K20/24 to a W58 Toyota transmission.
Made the bell housing myself and am now casting them and selling them to fund the build.
I have attached some pictures.
I will need some help on the motor side of the build so will be asking heaps of wiring and fueling related questions in the future.
