Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 121 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 121 | I am in the process of installing a T5 in my 55 2nd with the original 235. I am trying to figure out what to use for a pressure plate as the original is not reusable. What will bolt to the stock flywheel 3705410 which has 6 mounting holes for the pressure plate?

I think the disc/input shaft is finer than the ten spline that was on the original transmission. The six bolt pressure plates all share the same bolt pattern, provided they are the same type and size, I assume you want a diaphragm style pressure plate. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 348 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 348 | if your running a 10 3/4 original flywheel and presure plate you can run a 11 inch clutch from a 86 astro van v6 if your trans is 14 spline | | | | | Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 121 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 121 | Thanks for the help and managed to find a 10 1/2 that bolted in along with a Camaro V6 disc. I will see how they work and move up to the Astro set up if I have issues. 14 spline is correct.
