I HIGHLY RECOMMEND getting that transmission. Spend $500 now and save weeks of downtime, and hundreds on used weak ass D50 transmissions.
This isnt an option if you're going the wideblock route, but if you're going the narrow block route THIS IS FOR YOU!!!!!! If somebody on here doesnt get it, I'll personally come to each of your houses and beat your dog.
Toyota W-55 5 speed transmission setup to convert a 4g63 to a rwd engine configuration. includes clutch componenets ( flywheel two discs street/6 puck unsprung) and stock pressure plate, throwout bearing, pilot bearing etc.. everything you need to bolt on and go $500.00
seriously. Plus you can get detailed info on it so its more of an option in the future.
Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.
Well I emailed him! Just waiting for a response! He even lowered the price recently. Do you know him personally, DJ? If so, tell him to reply asap (well within reason, saw that his father was in the hospital... hope everything turns out okay).
This part is a definate must if you're using a D50 transmission. WAY easier than rigging up a stock slave cylinder to the pull mechanism.
