Here is the thing I have a L03 with a 5 speed manual Borg-Warner transmission (is that the same thing as a T5)
Well the L98 is is for a Automatic vette not sure of the transmission spec. My question is will the flywheel from the L98 work with my 5 speed manual Borg-Warner transmission
If it wont work can I use the flywheel from the LO3 and just press a new bareing in?????
Any suggestion would help thanks want to get the car back together soon thanks

 

i did the same swap.. LO3 5 speed to L98.. bolts up fine. the 305 and 350 is basically the same block from an external standpoint.

 

If the Vette L98 is '86-later, the flywheel will be the same. If it is '85-earlier, it is different and you'll need to get a two-piece rear main seal 153-tooth unit.

 

Its 85

 

Now you know. Need different.

 

five7kid I found out that the motor is actually 14093638 . ..350...87-95...2 or 4...Roller or flat tappet cam one-piece rear seal i

I already bought the other fly wheel this weekend i tried to put the oilpan on it did not fit I tried to use the one from the 305

 

Something sounds pretty weird there.

 

Its the oilpump and the splash plate that is keeping the oilpan from fitting can use the oilpump from the 305 will it pump enough volume to a 350

 

There shouldn't be any difference between a 305 and a 350 oil pump. I'd at least put a new pump on - a Melling M55 should fit, depending upon what splash plate this is that you're talking about. I don't have a lot of hands-on experience with Vette parts, though, so maybe that's all you're got going on.

 

Its not the pump its the pick tube and the splash plate over that. All i have to do is chang the pickup tube??????

 

I'd check into that first.
