transmission housing question?

would the transmission housing on 88-94 style chev 5spd be the same as the housing on a 88-94 style 3spd w/b.low?

If you are asking about the transmission to motor bolt pattern- it is the same.

Re: transmission housing question?

no, i mean the piece that bolts on to the transmission and also bolts to the engine. i call them bell housings wether its correct or not. well i have a 4spd standard tranny (3spd w/bull low) in a 90 chev, but my housing has a hole in it and is kinda crusty. the older type 4spds had a manual clutch, therefore a hole in the housing. i need another housing, just wondering what else if anything will fit.

I think that the 5-speed bellhousing was integral with the transmission for the heavy duty 5-speed. Your best bet is probably to get a used or new bellhousing that is the same as yours-- The older manual bellhousings have no provision for your hydraulic clutch linkages and slave cylinder.

Re: transmission housing question?

new bellhousings for these are expensive new, and almost impossible to find second hand. just thought that maybe the easier to find 5 spd bell housing might have been the same. thanks
