That’s for a T5…he’s looking for a T56 out of a Camaro. Trying to make it fit to the Cleve.
WRT to a T56 to mate to a 351C, I would suggest digging up what the correct trans for that application uses in either a T56 or TKO and see what the input shaft specs for those are.
I can tell you that the TKO600 comes with a longer input shaft and to use with a stock bell one either has to use an adapter plate to take up that length or use a short shaft kit to mate directly as stock. I chose the latter for my TKO-600, the extra length would have made the driveshaft too long (as opposed to fitting perfectly) and fitting into the tunnel was an ordeal even with the short input, it would have been worse with an adapter.
You will not regret using a stroked 351C, avoiding all the headaches of fitting the 400 will pay you back in spades. A 351C barely fits to begin with. Not to mention exhaust, Lima bellhousing pattern, etc.
nope for a tremec, differnt pn for a t5. clevs use sbf pattern too ,
Still won’t work, Tremec 5 speed(in whichever variation) vs. his T56 6 speed have total different mounting methods and spacing.
THAT part i didnt know
You’ll probably have to source a used clutch pedal, the brake pedal can be modified to work with the clutch pedal. There is a difference between power and non-power brake pedals.
Modern Driveline makes a nice hydraulic clutch conversion.
Agree…their “LF” series linkage is fantastic.
I found the McLeod 8750-07 Bellhousing is for LT1 to SBF, $454 from Summit and elsewhere on Google. Then from there I assume I should use a clutch and pressure plate designed for the trans, not for the engine? I called and they said it’s not an easy, “plug-and-play” application, more of a “cut-n-fab to make it work” part and setup and I’ll need to have a pilot bearing custom fabricated. I forgot to ask how big a clutch it fits, 10.5" or 11".
There is a difference between power and non-power brake pedals.
My 67 has stock power drum brakes with the correct pedal.
An interesting read on the conductivity of E85:
It seems that even glass is more conductive than E85, which is only slightly more conductive than gasoline (which is to say, pretty much not a conductor).
As for the stock tank, you can pick up a 1970 22gal tank for about $125 from Mustangs Unlimited, which includes a sending unit. I did this just this week, and welded a rear mount sump on it as well. I honesty don’t have any concerns as far as the sending unit goes…but will do some more specific research on that point.
I’m going to be using E85 for my Cougar as well, and have done a TON of research on it over the last months. I’m going to run a Megasquirt MS3x system instead of a carb, in order to take full control of my fuel and timing curve to get the most out of the fuel. Feel free to get ahold of me if you find out anything interesting regarding running this fuel, or have any questions regarding what I’m doing with my build

Pure (de-ionized) water does not conduct electricity either, it is the free ions dissolved in it which conduct. However alcohol being a weakly polar molecule, like water, it attracts both water and ions.
