Is the transmission bolt pattern the same from FOCUS to CONTOUR? - The Ford Focus Forum

**AWDsupercar** · 10-19-2009, 02:35 AM

Is the bolt pattern the same on the bell housing from a 2000-2004 Ford Focus (MTX-75) and a Ford Contour SVT (MTX-75)? Both are 5 speed of corse. The ford focus with the 2.0ltr 4 cylinder Zetec engine and the ford contour with the 2.5ltr v6.

Thanks in advance!

No sir, different bellhousing.

You could use a zetec bellhousing on the gearcase half of the svt contour mtx-75.

nope, the input shafts are different lengths between the V6 MTX75 and the Zetec MTX75. you must use a Zetec trans.
