What's happened to the original bellhousing?
My first one broke at the clutch pivot fork. The slave cylinder bracket broke off at the same time. What a mess. The previous owner cobbled together a mechanical linkage setup, must have come from an early 80's gasser with a mechanical linkage setup. I had a local welder patch the pivot point back in, and leave the slave cylinder bracket off. I continued to use the mechanical linkage.
Just a thought, depending on your bellhousing condition.

Sorry we couldn't have been more help. Unfortunately as you can see, you are not the only one that had to deal with a broken bell housing on a T19 transmission. Its quite rare to find one without a transmission still attached to it.
