Ok so it may kinda be relevant but as a definite answer, would a E-Series T5 with E-Series Bell-housing bolt up to an AU engine in a EL?

Cheers

Yes.

The only thing is that the bottom four bell housing bolts will not match up.

Most have left them out with out any issues, even in high powered applications.

yes..
but the 4 lower bolts on the e series bellhousing dont line up with the au sump..
if you can get an au t5 bellhousing this would be the best thing..
but if you cant well an e series will do the job..
i have been running the e series bellhousing for the last 3 years behind au engines with no problems..
but i now finally have an au t5 bellhousing.. :D

Pretty sure T5 for 6 and T5 for 8 have different input shafts as well.

Thats cool if its further back, might be a nicer location. You do have to reach a bit.

My 351/T5 bell housing is in the XF with an EL T5 bolted to it. But I could split the AU T5 and bell housing and see if it goes against the EA T5 I have. That would solve that one.

What about the cross member locations?

Have a look at my build thread Ash, shows you how far back it is. The AU boxes don't have the reverse switch on the top fork cover either. Cross member is the same.
