A bit of grave digging ( sigh, old tread... ) zrx-fighter, merkur, xr4man and cthommes, please enable your private message functions... Anyway, back to the fun and games with the Ford Sierra. Basically, the 1UZFE bit of the project is dead. After fighting with bureaucracy and getting...

There is 6 of the bolts and they are 50 mm long. I'd recommend order the bolts from Toyota as the original bolts have a 17 mm head and have integrated washers. The Toyota number is: 91619-61250

Right, as I have had a few requests for this file, I'll just upload it here to make it easier for everybody. The drawing is in AutoCAD 2000 format.

For me it looks like Toyota 4AG 20v throttle bodies on a copied intake.

I have a drawing of the flange, PM me your e-mail address.

tom steele: Be careful with your choice of 10.5" pressure plate as the outside diameter of the 1UZFE ring gear is 305 mm and the inside of the bell housing is not that much bigger. From this PDF file I found at the Centerforce web page it looks like the Mustang 1986 -> 10.4"/10.5" pressure...

tom steele: Let's just say that the price is very nice and leave it at that. Shipping blanks over to you is a no go, it will be bad enough to ship a finished 5.8 kg bellhousing to the US, a 65.0 kg blank will only cost an arm and a leg....

The first picture shows the T-56 end and the Ford and the Chevy bolt patterns. The second picture show the 1UZFE engine end bolt pattern. The pictures are not to scale.

This is how the 405 mm plug should look like after all the manual machining has been done, it's a lot of aluminium to remove !

Guys. Before you all go off on different tangents let's see if my bellhousings turn up from the manufacturer. If the worst happens and the manufacturer does not come through, all is not lost. I now have the correct bolt pattern to two different T-56 front housings ( Chevy and Ford ) and I...

motoracer47: Regarding the 345mm clutch bolt circle must be a typo as the 1UZFE, 2UZFE and 3UZFE have the same block bolt patterns, you can use any bell housing on any of the engines. The 240 mm clutch diameter is not a problem.

I have not heard back from the manufacturer yet, I know he's been abroad and has been delayed back. I'll let you guys know when I hear from him.

Hi guys. As one of the "Tremec boys" I'd like to get my $0.02 worth in... I have had extensive communication with several custom clutch manufacturers and 10" is a difficult size as there does not exist a lot of pressure plates for them to modify. They all recommended going down to a 9.5" (...

From what I have been told a T56 in good condition and with a 26 spline input shaft, will take 600 lbs/ft. As always there is people running more power thru they're T56 transmissions and there are people destroying gearboxes with a stock engine.

SuperRunner: The problem is not the machining, it's how cast iron behaves. A few quick points, do I doubt it matters :D Cast iron VS "billet". A cast iron atom have a much weaker link to it's neighbor compared to a "billet" ( forged ) iron atom. This is reflected in how a cast iron and a...

Flywheel and clutch choices for this bell housing, it's your imagination that limits your choice. I have put together a few setups I think will get the job done. 1) Single 241 mm ( 9.5" ), sprung center, South Bend clutch modified Sachs Racing CA707 clutch cover. Flywheel: Custom steel 241...

tom steele: Welcome to our little corner of the net. This bell housing can be used on all the UZFE engines, 1UZFE, 2UZFE and 3UZFE. I will look at flywheel and clutch choices for this bell housing in my next post. When it comes to strength, it's the spline count that's interesting, not if it...

And this picture just dropped into my e-mail.. It shows the bell housing now that the manufacturer is working on it. They have added fluid in/out openings to the Chevy concentric slave cylinder and they have also included the Chevy and Ford T56 bolt pattern. If you guys see anything missing...

Just an update on the progress. The drawing has been converted to nc code and a final "test run" has been done ( without machining anything ) so everything looks ready. The manufacturer have ordered the blanks needed to make 2 of the bell housings and they will be delivered in 4 weeks time.

The final drawing is with the bell house manufacturer. I double and tripple checked all measurements on the UZFE side so I'm 99.99 % certain they are correct. On the T56 side I know they are off, but the manufacturer will correct those, so the T56 should line up perfectly. Some pictures of the...
