.I would like to keep that bell as the motor motor mounts 2 spots in the bell. I was hopeing to hang the 5 speed off the original bell as the 3 speed is now..
Thanks for all the replies and the help.


The AX15 belhousing bolts to the trans case in a unique pattern which is nothing like the original trans pattern.

You might be able to fab up an adapter that you can bolt to the original bell and fits the AX15, but I think the plate would have to be bolted with the bolts going from inside the original bellhousing to plate, IOW you'll be drilling out threaded holes.
