    Sorry if this is picky - Looking at the Novak web site, I don't see any T-90 adapter to Ford engines except for the Pinto adapter. I presume that's what you are referring to. The Ford V8 adapter from Advanced is designed just like the GM adapter, using the T90J input shaft.

    The Ford Adapter that Novak sales right now works with all variants of the 2.0/2.3 Ford LIMA Engine, not just the Pinto engine. So it works with the Ford Ranger engine which is what most people will have access to. I am not talking about the V8 adapter

    This is something I have in my garage so its not a guess. I could probably get pictures of the correct bell housing if someone really needs them - because I definitely have the right one

    We need to petition Novak to start making adapters for the 80's thunderbird and mustang 4 cyl bellhousings I think!! Most 2.3 rangers with the 5 speeds have one piece trannys and no separate bell.

    Those are LIMA engines it already works. The bell housing that comes on the Ford Ranger is not relevant because you don't use it. You use the engine - the same engine that comes in the mustangs and thunderbird
