Bellhousing
We love period-look builds, but when you’re building something that is 50 years old, (or older) sometimes it is best to consider purchasing something new rather than buying an old used part that has seen a million miles, stripped bolt holes, or other damage that might make the part unsafe for use on your project. One such critical area is the manual transmission bellhousing. This part often sees a tough life and some serious wear. Transmission swaps/rebuilds, installing new clutches, and more mean the bellhousing sees a lot of on/off time over the years. This can equate to broken ears, stripped threads, worn clearances that affect transmission/engine alignment, and so much more. This is the very reason why we designed this replacement steel bellhousing for you Chevy enthusiasts running small or big block engines backed by a manual transmission.
Release Bearing
Speedway Motors’ hydraulic release bearing kit provides everything you need to ditch your stock, tired mechanical linkage and go hydraulic at a great value. The kit features a new and improved release bearing designed by Speedway Motors’ Engineering Team with a CNC-machined housing, extended fluid line fittings, and a built-in fail-safe retainer. There is simply no way to over-extend this release bearing with this retainer design. Typically over-extending the release bearing means pulling the transmission and reassembling the separated bearing (not to mention cleaning up all that hydraulic fluid in the bellhousing!). Also included are a sufficient number of release bearing shims to correctly set your air gap between the bearing face and clutch, as well as both 5/16- and 3/8-inch anti-rotation studs to fit a wide variety of GM manual transmission applications.
Clutch
These new kits feature a pressure plate with over 1700 lbs of clamping force. The clutch disc is unique in that it uses a double spring which is held in place by a unique spring retaining plate design. Clutch comes complete with a pilot bearing, clutch disc, pressure plate and an alignment tool.
