- In this video I install a Howe Racing Enterprises hydraulic throwout bearing on my Borg Warner T5 transmission that will be getting installed onto the 5.3 LS motor via a QuickTime performance bell housing.

BEST VIDEO on this. GOT the key point right away!
Thanks. I didn't take into account the trimmed fork actuation cylinder bracket and appreciate the response.
I had a very similar setup only behind a small block chevy with the same hydrolic throwout bearing.
Hello, Your math on the number of shims was correct and you should have used all ten shims but to get the right clearance you needed to remove 2. I'm thinking when you stack all ten shims together one or more are bent or some are thicker then others. Those shims are just stamped steel and nothing precision about them. As a suggestion, I would look at those shims and make certain none are damaged or have burrs and even measure their thickness. Stack the ten shims on the transmission snot then put the hydraulic bearing in place. Then before you put the transmission on to the bell housing take another measurement from the face of the bearing to the face of the transmission mounting surface. If the distance needed is not correct remove or add shims at this point. As a check use the 1/16" feeler gauge with the transmission bolted in place. Most OEM bell housings have no room to check with a feeler gauge.
What is the recommended clearance 1/16" or .016"? You kept saying 1/16 but the feeler gauge you used was .016. 1/16 is .0625". That puts you much tighter (.047) than recommended. If there is expansion when it heats up, the fingers could touch enough to wear out the throughout bearing.
Hi I’m doing the same thing I got the same T5 going in a gen 3 LS did you have to cut the stock retainer my retainer gos past the clutch 0.154 thousands
Hi. When it was all installed, did you look through the viewing inspection opening and see the whole bearing and hose’s moves towards the clutch, only the small sleeves stayed still? Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧
Which Quicktime scattershield is that? I see 6018C19S but not sure if that's it.
