w58 stuff was smaller.

Hope those brackets that go from the block to the housing still bolt up...I'd hate to see your trans go skipping down the highway!

Tell you what homeslice....I'll give you the damn bell housing aslong as you pay shipping....I don't want to see you ghetto rig your car...but you must promise to throw the obx pulley in the scrap bin.

Like i said,they all bolt up except 1 hole.So it shouldnt be a problem extending the bracket to fit the last one.but,hmm.................something just hit me.When stripping the car in 2007,i bagged and marked all bolts etc.So when i bolted the tranny to the block,i knew i had the right bolts at hand.But! the top 4 bolts where very short.so short infact that they didnt go further in then like 3 turns into the block.maybe this housing is longer too.then i have no choice but to change it i guess...hmf....:/

Very nice of you to offer.Lets talk after new year and see where i am at.And yes,im ordering an ATI dampener and throwing out the obx

I am thinking that you may have either a truck R150 or a 1jz bellhousing.

Gotta be 1JZ. iirc R150 bellhousing is 30mm shorter, and would not bolt up to the R154. For the 7M truck swap you have to cut a R154 and R150 bell and weld them together because the R154 bellhousing wont fit the R150, therefore a R150 bell wouldnt fit on a R154. Even if it did there would be a 30mm gap between the bell and the engine.

I recomend you throw that OBX crank pulley away as it will cause your motor to eat it's own bearings! Hate to see you out so much work into your engine just for it to fail.


LOL The FIRST thing I saw in that pic, was that crap pulley. That would be the first mod, to unmod that.

ATI, great pulley. :)
