Default What 5 speed bolts up?

My 69 Capri's running a 2L Pinto 4 speed, which I assume were out of a Escort (and yes, it's definately a Pinto in there....trust me). What 5 speed gearboxes bolt up, and what mods need to be made?
cheers.

Sierra should bolt straight up. Steel case Celica and alloy Supra boxes will go in with adaptor housings and clutch disc and cables, speedo drives, and minor tailshaft mods. Dellow Auto in Sydney have all the bits.

Sierra Trype 9 5 speed is the best bet. You need an Auto tunnel or go hard with a mallet on the manual tunnel to fit.
