I do not have one to be able to check your measurement. I would call GF/Astro and give them your casting number; it's almost certainly a NWC case, and I do not know if this is suitable for their gears.
With respect to the bellhousing; if you and the producer of the gearset feel its alright to use the case, then drilling and tapping to suit is not a problem.

Nate, this is definitely a WC box, regardless of the case casting number. I've got it apart and it has the caged needle bearings and Timken front cluster bearing...

Thanks!

Hey Nate,

I finished disassembling this box yesterday in order to bead blast and paint the case. In the process of "rough-sticking" all the internals back together for safe keeping, I found 2 pieces that I cannot place even with a manual (see pix). The 1st one, I'm stumped. The 2nd, does this little spring maybe go behind the pin in the mainshaft? I'm also missing a snap ring, do those come with the rebuild kits?

Thanks!

The first piece is part of a syncronizer. It's the cone that the blocker ring seats against.

Yeah, but there's nothing that matches the internal splines (which seem to double spaced and with a different tooth shape)...

It's been a while, but I think it's from 5th or reverse.

Russ;
The OEM part would be a 13-52-025-001. This has now been replaced with carbon lined kit TBKT11875 which are approx $50 each kit and you need 2 per gearbox (1st gear side and 2nd gear side). Tremec used a different lining which necessitated a cone angle change.
The spring is an anti rattle spring that was used under the 1/2 synchronizer clutch. It was deleted and is no longer necessary.

Do you have any ID marks on the mainshaft? Do you have 3 piece Sychro rings for 1st and 2nd? Do you have needle bearings under any mainshaft gears?
Tapered bearings on countershaft?

Snaprings come in the Small Parts Kits.

The first one fits on the mainshaft on either the 1st or 2nd gear side of the synchro hub and is the cone for the world class synchro rings. There should be two of them, one for each side.

Did not notice any ID marks on the mainshaft, I did measure it and it's 24" long (there are several different lengths).

Yes on the 3 pc rings, needle bearings, and the tapered bearings.

Thanks on the snap rings!

I'll have to go back and look, I didn't see any obvious place for that piece to fit and I only had one (unless I didn't disassemble it enough to find the other).

That goes in the shifter block. That is the only small spring in a WC T5. Go to this link and halfway down is a exploded view of a WC T5. http://www.tbtrans.com/t5_transmission.htm
