Hit a major problem

I have a 14 spline output shaft on my Borg Warner t5 and I need a 10 1/2 inch clutch. Need help from anyone who has run into this problem before!

Re: Hit a major problem

Astro van clutch I believe. And I assume you already know its a v6 t5 and with such a low first gear its not the best choice for a v8 application.

Re: Hit a major problem

I figured out that it was for a v6 but I found a 10.5 inch 14 spline on speedway

Re: Hit a major problem

Astro van clutch disc is the common solution to the problem as //<86TA>\\ mentioned.
