Marina engine Type 9 conversion

Post by **jiversteve** » Sun Jan 04, 2009 7:03 pm

I have been talking to the Marina Owners Club and in association with a member there we have made some adaptor plates to fit a Type 9 gearbox to a Marina 1.8 clutch and bell house.
We think it is also possible on a 1.3 and are checking.

I have fitted one to my Marina powered Marlin Kit car

If of interest we have set up a basic web site http://www.5speedmarina.com

Quite a common conversion on MGBs - and yes, some Minors have the Ford Type 9 box too.
