broken bell housing

**turbo83coupe** · 03-16-2007, 01:12 AM

This is the bellhousing that I broke apart last year at PRP

The stock clutch with a few miles on it and ET Streets did not make a good combination. I should have seen it coming

But I continued to drive it without a clutch for a week after to get to school and this is when this happened

I now have another ebay bought bellhousing, and WC T5 to go in, and I just need to order the clutch now. I figured I would share being that you may have seen it happened

Someone should make one though, alot of people run 2.3's on circle tracks

The funny thing is, I dont think that really happend at the track. It did break the clutch on my ET streets, but the bell broke much later.

FYI - There arent a lot of options for these bellhousing, thats why I keep my health insurance paid up. Several of us are looking at options, but better clutches (SFI) seem to be the best choice right now. Hopefulle we will have a V8 adapter soon ;)

Bingo! The bellhousing came apart on the street about a week or a week and a half later.

Frank you do nice work!

We need to make these fit or go C-4.
As soon as the clutch needs changed in the pinto the C-4 goes in...
