Re: [Amc-list] T96, T14 clutch -- final numbers

[Frank Swygert <farna@xxxxxxx>]

Didn't know the bolt pattern changed Andrew! All the T-96s I've had dealings with are 63 and earlier. Tom's is a 63 American, which has the bell housing rear mounts. Even the 63 Classic T-96 I had used the small bolt pattern even though it used a trans mount, so that's not an indicator. Hmmmm.... maybe it is though! I used the 63 Classic T-96 on a 79 multi-pattern bell. Only difference was the diameter of the front bearing retainer (smaller on the T-96). I drilled an old SR4 retainer to fit the T-96 and it worked fine. The retainer centers the trans -- I had to be careful drilling new holes in it, and just got lucky! 

I have an older bell to check with, just have to locate the trans now.

i've forgotten - does your car have the rear mount on the bell or the
tranny?  the t96 pattern changed that year [iirc the lower bolts
moved - down 1"].  i don't know of any other differences on the tranny
nose between the t96 and car t14.
