BP - Duratec bellhousing pattern

Postby wozzah1975 » Thu Oct 18, 2012 5:38 pm

Hoping someone can answer this.

Is the bolt pattern on the Duratec and B series (BP) bellhousing-block pattern the same?

Eg: does a duratec bolt to a BP gearbox?

Cheers

Don't know if it's the same bolt pattern, but I know that the starter motor is on the opposite side.

Any of the hang on's don't matter, as long as it bolts up :)
