I am getting ready to set up my aa bellhouesing with the s10 t5 trans. I have the right adapter . I have two questions: one I need to make an adapter to use with the original brake and clutch . Aa bellhouesing does not have one . Any suggestions or pictures would be helpful . Two I understand the the input shaft on the t5 is to long to fit the model a flywheel . I have all the pilot bushing , bearing to adapt the input shaft .what I am looking for is the amount to cut off( shorten)the shaft . Or will it work with out any modifications. Thanks for your input.

The adapter I have came with the brake and clutch shaft.
The shaft screws into the adapter.

I see by your picture the adapter .Where are you going to mount the peddles ? What I am looking for is a adapter that mounts to the bottom edge of the bellhousing, comes up where the peddle shaft mounts on top and goes to the top of the bellhouseing . It would look like the standard model a bellhouseing with the brake and cluch peddles shaft on top and the cluch throw out bearing shaft down and to therear of the houseing

If you look at the first picture I posted you can see the pedal shaft
screws into the side of the adapter.

miff - What is your reason to install a AA bell housing ? Can the A bell housing not be used to attach the t5 transmission?

Bob C · 03-25-2015, 06:49 PM

The AA bellhousing is shorter.
