V8 Bell Housing

[FI Spyder]

I have a friend that is putting a Rover V8 in his TR7 (it was taken from a Lotus Esprit that the owner had taken out for a Cadillac 32 valve V-8 engine swap) and mating it to his LT77 transmission. TR8 bell housings are hard to come by. What bell housing do you guys in UK/Europe use. Is there another bell housing (from a Rover product?) that will work on a TR7?

You can only use the v8 item

Triumph Rover Spares, or now known as TRS I think in Adelaide Oz supply one to suit the T5 box from V8 Falcons & Holdens. They also supply the right clutch components to convert from auto.

My son bought one when he fitted the T5 to the 8, as he was put off building one up himself, due to horror stories of how hard it could be to get the clutch gear adjusted & working on a new instillation.

An Aussie company called Dellow have bell-housings to mate the Rover V8 to various transmissions.
