Hi guys, I'm in search of a complete Borg Warner T85 set up to fit behind a 354 hemi. I need bellhousing, clutch, flywheel, throughout bearing, Clutch arm and transmission. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Working from memory, ran this setup in my 57 and 58 Fury over 40 years ago. Mopar only used this trans. in 60 behind the HP B engines (361,383 and maybe 413) and then used again in 62-64 behind the max wedges, (413,426). I am pretty sure the trans. bolt pattern is different from other Mopar std. trans. more like a Ford pattern with a long input shaft. All this info to say I have never seen or heard of it used behind a hemi or poly from the factory so; you would most likely need a bellhousing adapter to fit a B block bell or redrill trans. bolt pattern on a poly or hemi bell. Clutch and flywheel are standard Mopar parts.
I should add, this is a fairly strong 3 speed but behind a strong 354 hemi, if you get rough with it you can break it. (ask me how I know)
