Re: T5 advice
Your friend is correct! the S10 4.03 1st gear is pretty much useless. The problem with the S10 transmissions is that the bulk of them were Non World Class T5's (1984-1992) And they are decent...

Re: Mystery Blower
Agreed, Kinda of funny that a early hemi intake will bolt right on a Ardun engine. Zora is also the reason that we have a 327 chevy and the Famous DZ 302 chevy engine.

Re: T5 advice
Tim, Depends on what you are putting it in as it doesn't work well in the earlier fords because it doesn't have the internal cross shaft and fork, Also like the merc bell you are limited to the...

Re: T5 advice
flathead47, Your right This is another good option as long as you are using a 49-52 motor. I have used this Bellhousing before with a 1/2 steel plate to adapt it to the T5. worked well

Re: T5 advice
That should work just fine. What I mentioned about the sleeves is in the past guys have had trouble with them getting loose and turning on the bearing retainer. So with MDL's hogshead plate you had...

Re: T5 advice
You could have ordered the S10 T5 Bearing retainer as it will fit on any T5 and you could have used the Speedway sleeve. However as I posted above pressing a sleeve in the throwout bearing hub Like...

Re: T5 advice
Tim, that is what Speedway and Offy does. Your better off to do what Gary does and press a sleeve in the throwout bearing hub. If you do end up using a sleeve on the bearing retainer (from speedway)...
