That's a cool style! so full red instead of just changing the blue for red and leaving the yellow. Makes more sense

This is a late T series T50 out of a Charmant so it was luckily a straight swap.

Is this a "gen3" T50? I have a spare T50 which came with a 2T bellhouse, but it's different to the T50 that came with a 4A one ... it needs a spacer to hold the input bearing to correctly fit a 4A bellhouse (they bolt up fine) according to the internet otherwise they blow up.

EDIT; should add a picture for future reference since all data is becoming rare.


Left box came with a 2T bellhouse, 22-spline output with the correct shifter position (gen2)
Right is from a 4A AE86, also 22-spline (gen3)

A gen1 with 20-spline output also exists (I have one in my green car for some reason, but with different internals)

Notice the difference in input bearing. I don't have the tools by hand to correctly measure them, but by looking up the part numbers of both bearings the width differs.

Nice progress again
