How hard to fit to S2/Renault engine?

That is the Renault bell housing.  It will also take the 215 flywheel and clutch if you decide to go that way.

I need to know more.
Condition, ready to run?
If you can get it on a pallet and to the local shipping dock I can arrange YRC Freight.

"215 Flywheel and clutch"?
Obstacles for use in an S2?
Seems the linkage would have to change.
The real advantage over my 336, if any?
I am still learning the in's and out's!

With fifth being mostly an overdrive this might affect my cam selection too.

Richard, I have no knowledge of internal condition. It does shift thru all the gears. I got it with my car purchase, previous owner was going to replace the stock 4 speed with it, but never did. looks to have never been apart. I can crate and ship. I know nothing concerning a 215 setup, use in an S2, linkage requirements and or advantages over a 336? I am a Ford Mustang guy so this is a Greek stuff to me.

An idea of approximate mileage?
Seems most Europa do not get a lot of use.
Hoping some others will chime in.

Sorry Kram350kram.  I think Richard has confused my comments as coming from you.  Richard has started another thread on 5 speeds and I'll confine my comments there.

Attractive as it sounds I guess I will not dig this hole for myself, sorry.

I have an interest….will it bolt to a Twin Cam with the bell housing from my 4 speed?
