Thread: Flywheel Question

Hybrid View

  1. #1
    yes ,mine is a 10 spline input.
    the spacer im talking about is used on ls motors and th350 or th400 autos.it goes between the flywheel/flexplate and toruqe converter.
    with the bellhousing and tranny bolted up,my tranny input shaft is about 1/2 inch away from seating into piolot bushing area.the flywheel is closer to the back of the block on a ls motor vs and old school small block,thus needing the spacer on the tranny side of the flywheel,in order for the snout of the torqur converter to ride in.like i said the spacer is designed for autos,but looks like my manual trans needs a similar setup???
    i called advance adapters,after tech talking,i feel a little better about the kit they sell.but still havnt decided.heres the link:

    the input shaft sits in the pilot bearing which is in the crank for a standard/ flywheel application, a spacer will do no good for that. the crank will be in the same place.

    The best advice I have ever heard:... Only take B( . Y . )ST advice from someone that is CURRENTLY running a turbo setup close to, or bigger than what you want......

    Don't know if this will help you but I'm doing a car build using a T5 behind a 5.3. I just used a LS1 flywheel and clutch with a old big block bellhousing from the late 60's early 70's (11" clutch size to clear the 168 tooth flywheel). A hydraulic throwout bearing from Howe makes it work and it's a bolt in.
