" From: "Armand Eshleman" 
" 
" Here's a little more T5 information, the Ford sourced T5 up to 1993 will
" exchange with an AMC T5, bolt right up to that multi pattern bellhousing
" that AMC made. The input shaft housing is a larger diameter where it mates
" to the bell housing so the input shaft housing will need to be turned down
" in a lathe to match the hole in the bell, or swap an AMC input housing onto
" the T5.
 
that 'input shaft housing' is called the front bearing retainer, and
the 5.0 t5's is the same size as the amc t150 3sp and jeep t177 4sp
which used the multipattern bell.  also, 4-cyl ford t5 retainers may
be the smaller amc/gm diameter.
 
" Use the AMC bell housing/clutch linkage/throwout bearing parts too. There
" are a lot more Ford sourced T5s out there than AMC T5s. The spline of the
" input shaft is 1/16 less in diameter than the AMC but is easily dealt with
" by using a Ford sourced clutch disc.
 
likewise, easy to solve the ford pilot bearing problem with a t150-app
part.
