Disclaimer – Please Read Carefully
WARNING: Due to the nature of engine and transmission swaps, we cannot guarantee fitment into your vehicle without having to make mild to extensive modifications. This should be considered when starting your project. It is highly recommended to take the time to research any potential issues you may face prior to starting your build. There are numerous forums and websites that can help and give insight into any potential issues involved in the project. This project is not for a novice mechanic. If an individual is not confident in performing such extensive vehicle modifications, Speed Gems recommends finding a capable shop for assistance.
Prior to and during installation of your new Speed Gems Transmission Adapter Kit, always ensure to:
- Clean everything, including all components and surfaces.
- Use proper torque and Loctite all bolts.
- Do not force anything and begin all bolts by hand before using any tools. This will prevent cross-threading.
- Check all bolt clearances.
We try to make everything as simple as possible to help you, but the ultimate
responsibility as to the assembly of the kit is up to the installer.

APPLICATION NOTES & INSTRUCTIONS
- This Kit uses the stock ECOTEC Starter and Flexplate. NOTE: This Kit can also be used to install various Manual Transmissions by bolting on a 1985 & older Flywheel from a Chevy 350 engine. The crank adapter is machined to also accept the stock Chevy Flywheel bolt pattern.
- The stock ECOTEC starter bolts to our 1” thick Adapter Plate.
- The Crank Adapter bolts on top of the stock ECOTEC Flexplate so that the original starter engages the original ring-gear. This allows for the original engine balance to be retained.
