kiwi303 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I have a Borg Warner 0507 series box on it's way to me as a cheap gearbox, what I'm wondering, and haven't found any answers to either on hybridz or through Google on the WWW is the question of bolt patterns of the gearbox to bellhousing join. I know the T5, while sold to Tremec, started out as a BW design, and the 0507 is a BW design of fairly similiar vintage, both being used on mid 80's vehicles. What I want to know is, once I have the adaptor plates, clutches etc all set up, if at a later date something stronger that BW made, such as a T5, drops into my lap, can the gearbox body be unbolted from the bellhousing and the new T5 gearbox be bolted on without modification? Or does the Bellhousing to Box bolt pattern change between different BW boxes? I'm hoping theres a gearbox guru on here who can help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad-ManQ45 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I'd be worried about the input shaft too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
