Ef box will bolt up but the bottom bolts don't go in. Still plenty of bolts to hold it though. I have AU motor with EB box behind it.

they miss out by a lot, the shape is different , its because the lower section of the au bellhousing bolts to the alloy sump, where e series just has 2 steel support bracket from the block to bellhousing...

no, because the au sump has those as part of the sump structure..
I guess you could cut away at it if you wanted to and run the e series bracket?

If you fit an AU Bellhousing with an EF/EL gearbox, everything will match up perfectly, this is the best way to do it.
