The alumium plate and the flattish hogshead in the front of the 2nd pic go together to mount a T5 tranny to an early engine with the short bellhousing. It is normally used with a truck adaptor which converts the 8BA (Merc) type block to the early type bellhousing. It may be possible to use one of the bellhousings shown (with the matching starter plate) to achieve the same conversion. I believe some of this forum have done this. (Ron??)
If one of the later bells is steel, then it is easier to convert, as you can weld to it.
No personal experience of doing the above conversion, just what I've picked up following such items in here and the hamb.
