Will a top loader 4 speed bolt up to a t-5 bell-housing, I have a 91 fox and i kepp breaking them and was told by many people that top loaders are very strong. has anyone tried this theory, any other mods i have to do to get this tranny to work in my fox?? any help would be great!!
I don't know specifically if an original top loader will bolt up to a t5 housing. However, I do know that the original Tremec 3550 was designed based on the original top loader. The Tremec 3550 and the models that came after do require a different housing. Unless this is a track car, I would get the five speed Tremec.

After reading this I remembered that the Tremec uses the same bellhousing as the early foxes that came had the SROD 4 speed. Maybe you can try to find someone parting out a 79-83 1/2 that has that trans. But to tell you the truth, if you keep blowing up T5s, you may want to invest in a scattershield.
