and you need to work on the 4 holes to attach the tranny to the engine all this done with the flex plate in its place,,make sure to set it with the dowell pin thats on the top side of the tranny

This is another way and it works perfect too, Cuz the dowel pins line the tranny perfectly on the 3t block and you just need to slot the holes a little. as long as the dowels are in place the bolts will tight it up just perfect!

Did you braze the weld or is it arc welded or mig spool gun looks like a great right up for the diy kinda guy thanks

Really don't know How my boy welded it Carlos but like I said this isn't too hard to ,you just need some one to weld it for you

This is really good info,thanks for sharing it.I recently nearly dumped a couple of W55's because I thought I may never have a use for them!!

Glad my write up gives you guys ideas on how to do the bells

Bad ass bro

Im not sure if you would have them in the USA but,
in AUS i use ether 3TG or 1G bellhousings to bolt W5* gearboxs to T series block.

3TGTE bolt straight up and use everything from the T50 bellhousing (clutch fork, slave, etc)
1G Has the clutch fork on the Left side of the vechile so that my become and issue for your steeringboxs?
i can fit 3'' dump pipe between the fork and my idler arm though.

ill have pictures of this somewere if needed.

dan.

We dont have here in the states neither of them, i score some of those 3tgte bell's before but that is why we do adapters cuz we didnt get the good shiat here lol, he got to make chicken out of chickenshit!

last time I saw one of em bells for sale they wanted like $350. for it ,,,hard to find and expencive
that's why I learned how to do the w-series ones

Is the spline coming out of the w58 in the front the same as the t50 or do we need a special clutch and pressure plate
