Not Ranked
Hello
My particular is a T56 Magnum, 26 spline input, 31 output
The issue I am having does not appear to be a problem with the bellhousing, i have plenty of bellhousing clearance.
The problem I have is that the fork itself is too thick to get the TOB down far enough on the retainer sleeve. My fork contacts the face of the transmission itself. I have shaved about 0.200" off the entire length of the SN95 fork I was using for measuring/testing and now I can get maybe 0.020" of gap between the pressure plate fingers and the TOB surface. I think I need to get to about 0.100" gap to be safe. However, that would require taking a total of 0.300" of the entire length of the SN95 fork which I am sure will make it too weak and then it will bend on me at some point.
If the fox fork is in fact "thinner" than the SN95, then that may work for me.
If not, then that's probably why the tremec guy says use an SN95 fork but then he machined down his transmission to get it all to fit together.
I was hoping to find a part that would work in here a little nicer. I dont really want to take the front of my transmission off to have it machined.
Maybe I should just use the Hydraulic MCLEOD TOB and see how it goes? But if it leaks....i have to take everything apart.
Decisions....Decisions.....
