This adaptor plate will allow you to fit a Mazda MX5 NC N7 5 speed gearbox behind your Zetec, Pinto, 2,3 Galaxy, Crossflow or BDA Engine and put the starter motor on the drivers side.

The plate is laser cut to ensure accuracy and repeatability so all adaptor plates are manufactured and fit the same.

The top two countersunk holes are used to align the centre line of the adaptor plate to the centre line of the crankshaft. The plate is supplied with the two countersunk M10 screws for this. There are 2 dowels welded into the adaptor plate that then line the gearbox to the crank centreline.

Your gearbox will need notching slightly to clear the nose of the starter you are using unless it is a lightweight/hi torque type unit with no nose.

The gearbox can be used with the standard external slave cylinder or one of our hydraulic concentric release kits. Cable clutch conversion isn't an option due to the starter position.

The starter motor is mounted on the drivers side the same as a standard 105e Anglia.

With this adaptor plate on a Zetec the preferred setup for flywheel, starter and clutch is one of the following:

  • 1800 Zetec flywheel drilled for pinto pressure plate and MX5 1.8/2.0 friction plate.
  • Steel lightweight manufactured flywheel with pinto pressure plate and MX5 1.8/2.0 friction plate. 
  • One of our 1.4Kw starters

 

Pinto engines use standard flywheels and starters and run a type 9 clutch.

Crossflow engines use the same setup as a type 9 so standard flywheel and starter with an early Sierra 1.6 type 9 clutch.

The adaptor plate is supplied with all fastenings to bolt the engine to the adaptor plate, the gearbox to the adaptor and the starter to the adaptor plate.
