Converting TH400 to a T5 Manual
Posted: Sat Nov 05, 2016 10:38 pm
I am running a 74 Vega Kammback with a hopped up early 350 SBC. Currently I have a TH400 that works nice. I want to convert to a BW T5. Real Hot Rods are better with a clutch, besides running 3000 RPM at 60 mph is too much drama, and tough on the temp gauge. I found a complete pedal, pulley, cable, arm assembly for my originally 4 speed car. Ebay has a few V8 monza bell housings for about $150, so I can use the Cable setup. Okay, this sounds easy, but here are my questions.
. What should I look out for setting up the cable/bellhousing?
. Can I use my existing flywheel?
. Which T5 should I look for?
....World class or No?
....What are the differences with shifter position?
. Can I use my TH400 tranny mount?
Thanx in advance... You guys rock
