Elan or Elan +2 diff case

i am looking for an Elan or Elan +2 diff casing, to take a Ford-type diff carrier. This diff carrier is odd - having 15 holes instead of the usual 8, and is made of alloy . When I got it in 1981, I think it was advertised as coming from a Lotus Cortina. It now has a Salisbury LSD, and is still heavy! I read that there are early and late type diff casings. How do they differ? Are Elan and Elan +2 casings the same?
Also looking for a set of knock-off hubs, spinners and wheels.
thanks

Mark,
See thread below with pics:
elan-f15/lotus-alloy-diff-casing-t17095.html
I believe that the diff strengthening bracket was also introduced, along with the beefed up casing "ears", for Sprints & S130's
Note also the differing output shaft specs.
Cheers - Richard
