T 5 - using the stock T 5 W/C = 14 spline input shaft (installed into my 69 Nova , behind my
"stock 250ci L 6 engine" . This IS a 1993 GMC , S-15 , 2.8 V6 , T 5 transmission with the
early front Munice Bolt pattern (trans IS from a 93 truck - - but, was cast in '92 - - thus ,
having the old style front BOLT pattern - "it is a World Class T 5" . And , has the " Electric speedo (VSS) , out-put.
And , I did buy the Jeep 1o spline 'input - shaft' .
I 'DID NOT use' the Jeep in-put shaft .............. I DID use the stock S-15 - 14 spline shaft .
. . I did a search on Summit , and found a = 10.5" dia , 14 spline clutch disc :
on the Summit page - look for : (part # ) ADD - 716104 .
https://www.summitracing.com/parts/add-716104Then , I DID "Grind my 14 spline input shaft " SPLINES , longer " ; too have more 'movement on
my 'shaft splines' . I did install my T 5 , several times , before I came too this point.
. . # 1. showing how I made my shaft splines LONGER (just like Jay says) .

in-put 'pilot shaft TIP' . And, cut off the "input shaft Retainer" , cover . - - - I also had a good GM "Saginaw 4sp trans" (too go b- for my measurements) .
Thanks, jim

S-15 stock shifter.
I have (just 2months ago) = bought another 1993 S-10 - T 5 tranny - - This T 5 , does have the
"Ford Bolt Pattern" - (and has the S-10 shifter "tail-housing location" ) .
