    What bellhousing are you running? The through out bearing will have to be compatable with a long pressure plate.

    I don't see why the clutch release arm would not be the same a manual trans. and the through out bearing the same as long as front bearing retainer is the same size and has a flat face. If the trans has a manual valve body be prepared for a bone jarring 1-2 shift with out the cushion of the torque converter.

    yes it's a manual Valve body ohh I'm well aware of the hard shifts

    I've searched around but nothing really I've called maverick performance which is one company still making the clutch turbo's he couldn't help me cause my throw out bearing ID was bigger then there's

    I'm no expert, but pics of what you got, might be help towards what you don't have!
    Because some of these guys have done mad skill.

    Just use plenty of photos, then hard tasks becomes possible!! :D

    ID of bearing its self or the collar that holds it? The area that the collar slides on looks a little short but if things have worked in the past we should be able to get them to work again..
