Is this a narrowblock transmission?

Post by rILEYcAPSlOCK »

I'm looking at a KM132 off of a 2.0L. 5 speed, RWD.

The company says it will fit 83-89 models.

your supposed to measure across the two bottom holes, not the top
if it is 12 1/4 across then its the narrow block

don't think it will work if it was, the throwout arm access in straight down on the bottom side. you would be dragging it.

The pattern overall looks correct, but it came off of something different than what everyones seen. Maybe whatever it was had a hydraulic bearing.

Its weird that the throw out fork goes out the bottom of the bellhousing and not the bottom/side like on a Starion... or using a lever arm like the D50/Mightymax.

What is this transmission from?

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.

If you were set on using it, the it shouldn't be too hard to move the clutch fork. It's basically just a rectangular hole with a spot for the pivot ball. At least it seems that simple to me.

Looks like it uses the cable setup. See across above the input shaft, it looks like its missing the levers for the cable setup.
