Will a bellhousing out of a 94-95 V6 fit on a 5.0? I'm doing a transmission swap and I have a opportunity to get one I just want to make sure it will fit.

I don't think that the 3.8L bellhousing will fit on the 5.0L engine.

I think it'll physically bolt up to the 302, but I believe there was something different about it, like it won't accomodate a 10.5" clutch, or something to that nature. Someone asked this before, last year maybe, and I remember reading it here.

You're welcome, although I'm not sure I was really of any help. I'm still looking for a more definitive answer for ya, as we speak.

I've got a 95 302 bell and the dust shield for sale. If you still need it let me know.

The 3.8 bellhousing will bolt up to the 5.0, but the starter wont contact the flywheel. The 3.8 uses an 11" clutch, to the 3.8 BH moves the starter out a quarter inch or so. Youre going to have to find a 5.0 BH out of a 94-95, or a earlier 5.0 BH with a 94-95 Adapter.
