Gearbox adaptor for Ace Zephyr

[PeterMorley]

I'm about to start the rebuild of our 1953 Cooper Zephyr sports car (a Cooper Bristol sports car but fitted with Zephyr engine when it was built).
   
   We are are thinking of using a Moss box with the Zephyr engine, as I believe did the Ace Zephyr.
   
   What we need is an adaptor/bellhousing for the gearbox, I assume the Ace Zephyr had a special bellhousing?
   
   Does anyone have or make such an adaptor/bellhousing?
   
   While I'm asking for information does anyone have any recomendations for Zephyr engine builders?
   
   Thank you
   Peter
