BELLHOUSINGS AND CLUTCHES<br />
BELLHOUSINGS<br />
M-6392-E 1979-93 5.0L T-5 Bellhousing<br />
• Can be used as a replacement part or<br />
for building a kit car or street rod<br />
• Cast aluminum, produced from<br />
the original production tooling<br />
M-6392-M46 4.6L/5.4L<br />
Tremec 3550<br />
Cobra “R”<br />
Bellhousing<br />
• Use to mate the Tremec 3550 transmission<br />
to the 4.6L/5.4L modular engines<br />
• Minor modification is required for<br />
transmission clearance and mounting<br />
in some applications<br />
• Cast aluminum production style<br />
bellhousing<br />
TECH TIPS<br />
CLUTCH/TRANSMISSION<br />
INSTALLATION TIPS<br />
1986 and newer V-8 Mustangs<br />
The flywheel to crankshaft bolts must be<br />
hand-torqued to 75-85 ft./lb. (302/351W)<br />
and 54-64 ft./lb. (4.6L)<br />
The 10.5" pressure plate bolts must be torqued<br />
to 12-24 ft./lbs. and 11" pressure plate bolts<br />
to 33 ft./lbs. + 1/4 turn.<br />
Be sure to use the alignment dowels<br />
in the flywheels.<br />
Pressure plate bolts and alignment dowels<br />
for the 10.5" clutch can be purchased using<br />
PN M-6397-A302. Pressure plate bolts<br />
N808969-S100 and alignment dowels<br />
PN D1FZ-6397-B are for the 11" pressure plate.<br />
Evenly tighten bolts in a circular direction<br />
one turn at a time.<br />
Bellhousing alignment is crucial for proper<br />
clutch and transmission function.<br />
Due to production tolerances of engine<br />
blocks and bellhousings, it is possible for<br />
the transmission centerline and crankshaft<br />
centerline to be misaligned. Misalignment can<br />
cause transmission gear wear, transmission<br />
jumping out of gear, driveline vibration, clutch<br />
pedal vibration, pilot bearing noise, release<br />
bearing noise or excessive clutch spin time.<br />
It may also damage the pilot bearing,<br />
transmission mainshaft bearing and clutch hub.<br />
It will also cause harsh shifting.<br />
Before installing the bellhousing, check<br />
the block mounting surface and bellhousing<br />
surfaces for nicks, dents, paint debris, etc.<br />
These are some things that could affect<br />
the accuracy of your measurements.<br />
UNIVERSAL SAFETY BELLHOUSING<br />
M-6392-C<br />
• Steel safety bellhousing with block plate<br />
• Fits 1979-93 Mustangs with T-5<br />
or Tremec 5-speeds and cable<br />
operated clutch linkage<br />
• Will not work with<br />
long-style pressure plate<br />
• May interfere with<br />
long tube headers<br />
BELLHOUSING<br />
M-6392-R58<br />
• Unique clutch housing required<br />
for Tremec 5-speed transmission<br />
used in the 1995 Mustang<br />
Cobra “R” models with 351W<br />
• Will also fit 289/302/351C<br />
engines<br />
• Requires diaphragm type clutch<br />
HOW TO CHECK BELLHOUSING ALIGNMENT<br />
The first step is to check bellhousing face runout. You are checking for parallelism of the<br />
back of the bellhousing to the back of the block. Install the dial indicator (as shown in Fig.1).<br />
Rotate the crankshaft and mark down the reading. Be sure to push the crankshaft against<br />
the thrust bearing for an accurate reading. Maximum runout is .010. The next step is checking<br />
bellhousing bore runout. You are checking to see if the bellhousing bore centerline is aligned<br />
with crankshaft centerline. Reposition the dial indicator in the bellhousing bore (as shown in Fig. 2).<br />
Rotate the crankshaft and mark down the readings. Maximum out of concentricity is .015.<br />
If the bore runout is out of spec. install appropriate offset dowels.<br />
Offset alignment dowels can be purchased from Lakewood.<br />
