I am going to look at some parts and the guy has a project going and i figured i would ask around and try to find out. when using a TC T-5 transmission from 87-88. with a SBF bell housing swap is it possible to convert it for use with cable clutch?
Yeah. You can use a cable clutch with a TC t5.
You'll need a probe pilot bearing for the smaller input shaft though, in case you didn't know. Most any decent auto parts place has 'em, or can get them.
If you're rear gear is gonna be very steep, you'll not like first gear in the TC's trans though...it's deeper than a v8 T5.
I'm pretty sure the TC pedals won't work for a cable clutch, so you'll need pedals from an '86 and older TC or XR7, or a Fox stang.
That you'll need a cable is pretty obvious, as well as the bell, and the clutch fork.
Whew! Think I got it all in there :D
ty mate i just wasnt sure if we could use the hydraulic TC trans and convert it to clutch.. when i meet with the guy this weekend i will let him know the details thanks again
The trans has nothing to do with the clutch actuation. The bellhousing does.
I have pedals from a 86 mustang gt, if you need them.
i was just lookin at this information for a guy who i was getting some parts from who had a tbird he was lookin at putting a 302 with 5 speed in
