mill bellhousing to fit Toyota 5 speed box




jag meets toyota




I've started with milling the jaguar bellhousing to fit a Toyota w50 5 speed manual gearbox and it fits using Toyota clutch and pressure plate all I need is to turn up a bush for the back of the crank shaft.

 

That's an impressive mod ! If that Toyota transmission is any thing like the one in my Mazda B2200, then it will shift like a hot knife through butter. I had an old B2200 with over 800,000KM on it and the trans. never needed servicing _ I changed the oil when needed. I only stopped driving the truck because the frame rotted out.
Will the speedo cable fit on the Toyota trans from the jag and if is so will it be accurate ?

 

Hi
and great job you are doing,
for us in the UK what is the Toyota w50 5 speed manual gearbox out of,
thanks,

 

the gearbox came from a Toyota celica 18r 1978/1981, as for how accurate the speedo will be I don't know but Toyota have a big range of speedo gears so I see no trouble and I can get speedo cables made to order all to easy.

 

4 pot volvo






dual circuit master cylinder



brake upgrade with 4 spot Volvo's and dual circuit master cylinder.

 

would you mind detailing the engine please ?

 

So with that Volvo master cylinder, you must be loosing your power breaks or are you utilizing the stock Jaguar vacuum booster ?
Oh, wait a minute, there are newer versions of that external vacuum booster with duel circuits, maybe that's the way you went ???

 

jeff, the master cylinder is from a vw super bug and I will be using 2 vh40a boosters one in std jaguar place right side and the second on the left side copying std place with jaguar cover.

 

it will be when I change the sump and oil filter and put on the polished bits.
