i was wondering if there is anyway at allto get a t5 from a v6 to work with a v8?

 

Requires a different bell housing and maybe input shaft. I'm pretty sure it's in the sticky at the top of this forum

Yes it's in the sticky "The T5 offered in V6 engines has a different bellhousing to match the V6, as well as a 10 spline input shaft, compared to the V8's 27 spline input shaft. The V6 T5 also has different gear ratios."

i just read that so there no way to make it work?

 

bump cause i read through the forum and some guy said he had one cut for a v8

 

Yes you can make it work but its a pain in the butt and most people dont recommend it.

this forum and you'll learn all about it.

 

It can and has been done quite easily as long as it's a third gen 82-92 v6 trans with 14 spline input.

What you need:

V8 Bell housing
V8 pressure plate for 10.5" clutch
standard pilot bushing/bearing
standard fork
regular linkage or hydraulic setup
1" 14spline 10.5" clutch disc


The clutch disc can be ordered from www.advanceadapters.com PN#716104. on the left side of the page click clutch components and then clutch discs. Once the clutch discs page loads it's on page 2 second last part. $120.75

 

so the fork and bushing and bearings from the v6 will not work , and i have search the forum nothing has come up for me..

 

Speedway Motors sells a 10.5" 1"x14 spline clutch disc for $69.99, PN#910-15649
I've used them in this car when it had a pre-'92 6cyl T5.. http://members.tripod.com/~grannys/GSSshopmule.html

Not sure if the v6 fork or pilot are the same. I already had all of the v8 stuff and didn't have the v6 stuff so I can't honestly say. As Granny said above....there are other sources for the clutch I just posted the one that I know of. I have heard something about a jeep clutch working also but , again can't say for sure because I haven't done it.
