Xerilious Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Hey guys! I am new to this forum and I need your help. I bought a 280zx turbo 5 speed and have an l28. I am now searching for a bellhousing to connect the two. If anyone has one they wish to sell or have a place where I could buy one, I’d greatly appreciate it! Thanks and feel free to pm me if you have any questions! Trevor Flanagan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 The 280ZX used the L28 also. It already fits. The 280ZX "Borg-Warner" is the FS5R90A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I do know that it fits, but I do not have the bellhousing with the transmission. I only have the transmission itself and need a bellhousing to allow the connection between the transmission and the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Good luck with that. Might as well buy a whole transmission. What happened to the bellhousing that it came with? Can't think of any reason to separate them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xerilious Posted July 14, 2020 Author Share Posted July 14, 2020 I don’t know exactly what happens but I’m hoping that someone else will have one to sell XD. If not I will most likely suck it up and buy another whole transmission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Good luck. You do know that the BW 5 speed needs extra work to fit in a Z car? Transmission mounts and stuff. Not clear if you're working with a Z or a ZX. I'm really only replying because I think that you'll be waiting a long time to find somebody with just a bellhousing, and if you're working with a Z you'll need more parts on top of that. Describe your project and you'll probably get lots of ideas. But the forum is low on traffic these days so the guys with BW bells are going to be few. @borini63 is a ZX guy though, he might have one.

Xerilious Posted July 14, 2020 Author Share Posted July 14, 2020 Awesome! I’m working on ‘76 280z and have the shortened driveshaft of the ZX for the spline and can easily fabricate the trans bracket. I really appreciate all of the help but where do you suggest I describe my project? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
