So I held out hope that a miracle would happen that the S10 I owned before, and this new Chevy transmission would magically work together. That was very wishful thinking. Now I have a new problem.
I have a Suzuki… and this is a Chevy transmission. I went ahead with it as it was 2 wheel drive, and that saves space under the car as well as a lot of weight. The problem is I’m in the same boat as I was before with the bell housing not having a custom made plate, and now that I have the clutch I have a problem that there isn’t a ready made mount for the flywheel either! Then to add insult to injury, the driveshaft is too short to reach my dif. ARG!
But I have hope. Near the end of the week I’ll be heading to the auto wreckers, and I have a list of bell housings I can choose from that will bolt onto this one, and with the flywheel from that vehicle I’ll make it all work…. I hope. Then the driveshaft… I need to find one that is 9 inches longer. Here is hoping!
