I've put plenty of attention into this thread... I am confused as to why the engine with the oil return for a turbo is being bolted with that trans as opposed to this one

I'm developing the turbo system on the Contour and then adapting it to fit the Cougar ... thus allowing me to develop a turbo kit which will work with both platforms since there are minor difference in the front bumper area where a FMIC system will run into fitment issues.
Remember: red = race = Cougar

It does not- The nut goes on the engine side.
I pulled a powertrain out this past weekend, so I remember it clearly. The stop collar stops on the trans case- There is nothing on the engine side to stop it.

Exactly. There is a slot for the tab on the transmission bell housing. Should be self explanatory when you try to fit it.
Looking from the back of the transmission, left side second bolt up from the bottom IIRC.

OK, back on topic  Just got a call from the wife ... the headers are in  Time to start welding some more and get my butt in gear. It should be interesting to see how things go considering that since I openly announced developing this kit, two other professional shops have announced the future release of similar kits. Of course, I'm not looking to make a huge profit like I'm sure they are ... I just looking for a few hundred $$ per kit to help offset my loss on this Contour and hopefully provide the best designed kit in the process

Yep.
Disagree:
The nut goes on the engine side....the tab on the bolt rests into cast slots on the trans and prevents it from turning....I'll take a pic tonight if you'ld like....
