kurts1 Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Hey I'm new here, Anyways I have just purchased a ke70 with a 5 speed box in it and am planning on transferring the engine to a 16 valve 4age as my daily driver. well my question is: is it possible to swap the bell housing on the k50 so it able to bolt up to 4age? yes i know it is not the strongest but its really smooth and will do the job for the moment anyway. Any advice would be appreciated, Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tally Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 no because you can't take the bell housing off a K50 as its not bolted on but actually part of the gearbox... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerhead Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 AE70 and AE85 gearboxes are the cable type clutch gearboxes that'll bolt up to an A engine. You'll have to split the gearbox in half, as the bellhousing is integrated into the front section of the case. Find a T50, definitely a better gearbox.

white_sandshoe Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Yes, beerhead is (as usual) right... I've got one of the elusive AE70s with A series K50 boxes attached. Good luck trying to find one... Though i can't imagine it'd be very expensive if you were to find one. Go T50 or, better yet, 4A- W5* bellhousing and supra box it!

seabiscuit Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 A T-50 will cost you $300 bucks. A K-50 with an A-series bellhousing will cost you nothing but it will take you 3 years to find one and will, on command, break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurts1 Posted June 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Looks like I'm in for a t50 then. Thanks for the help :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
