Difficult time trying to find a clutch disc for a T-5 trans - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm in the middle of attaching a T-5 transmission to a stock 250 flywheel. I believe I have a 1988(unsure of exact year) S-10 T-5, with a 14 tooth(yes, 14 tooth) input shaft. What I'm looking for is a 14 tooth disc that's right at 10" or slightly under to fit my existing clutch which has alot of miles left on it. I understand that there might be a 9-1/8" disc out there, but I'm afraid that might be too small for a 1/2T truck.

Basically, I'm trying to avoid buying a new flywheel to match up to the T-5 clutch packages because right now the clutches I've looked at- the outer bolt circle diameter is too small to mount it to my stock flywheel.

Check a early astro van with a 5 speed . I believe it is a 9 3/4

Found this NAPA number for a 9 11/16 RCF4201 you can check it out

This was for a 1984 Camaro with a 2.8 V6

You also might check with www.specclutch.com. They are a little pricey, but really good stuff.

Thanks guys. I ended up getting the original disc, but now I'm having other issues trying to mount this thing up.
