Good luck. I've been looking for a V4 bell-housing for 5 years. The V4 was never an option for the Escort, so you would need to chase down one from a Capri in NZ or a Cosair in Australia. They were in some early transits but most were junked in favour of holden straight 6's

Seriously mate. How can you say he knows nothing. He's going to take a really good car and make it truely unique (putting in a V4). Lets see your credentials. :
Good luck Rob. Post some picks when you can.
