    Don't forget that you will have to make provisions for the crank position sensor in the old bellhousing...not a big deal but worth mentioning.

    The T-14/T-15 bell is about an inch deeper than the GM or Ford bell as I recall. But you eliminate the long input shaft and adapter that you'd use with the T-90, and the T-14 or T-15 is a little longer than the T-90. So I expect the T-15 would not be any further back than the T-90 setup, and I would guess it will come out a little shorter. Not by much, but a little.

    now were talkin guys!!! keep the ideas coming, i'm ordering the t150 bell and going to try to bolt it up just for the heck of it, who knows, i may get lucky but i'm sure something will be a mess, but i do have a leathe and a mill so anything is possable, i will probably use some sort of aluminium radiator from summit, just need to get the engine mounted so i can get some dimentions, andd as far as the water pump, i found i can use a YJ (i think thats what it was) water pump, and belt system to suck it up a little tighter, i did read up on the crank sensor, that wont be a problem, and i'm not to worried about the t-90 holding up, if it breaks, i will repair/replace, it wont be driven ruff or have big tires, just has 245/75/16 toyo m'ts, i just dont want to spend a big pile of money on it trying to swap trans or drive shafts, just want a fun, funcutal project
