Can this bellhousing be used to go with t5 trans,and what may have to be done to use it.
i've used that style hogs head a few times. It' the cheapest way to hook a T-5 to an older flathead. Dwight Bond make an aluminum adapter, it's only about one inch thick, bolts right to the back of the hogs head, 6 bolts, and the T-5 bolts right to the adapter, It come with a sleeve to go over the T-5 front bearing retainer for the old Ford thro out bearing to ride on. It also has a piece that screws on the side of the adapter for the older clutch and brake pedle to slide over. I think it's about $180.00 Someone on here has Dwights tel no. Walt
