This is the Kennedy Engineered Products Audi 5000 adapter to Small Block Chevy adapter.

A few things I found while installing. Problems overcome but people should check before "locking" things down.

Scott Belford - Audi Adapter Kit

For everybody looking to mate a LT1, or SBC to the Audi 5000 transmission, This picture shows all of what is included in the kit from Kennedy Engineered Products. The kit I have shown is with a stage II clutch mounted to the custom flywheel.

This Photo shows the the adapter, custom starter, aluminum flywheel with steel ring gear, throw out bearing, stage II clutch package and all mounting hardware. The workman ship is exceptional, everything needed to mate is included.

Total kit cost $1,070.00 US dollars but if you don't order the clutch setup, you can pick it up for $650.00 dollars. The adapter plate it 3/4" thick, but I dont see that as being a problem with my setup.

Adapter Plate and Flywheel

Mounted the Adapter plate and Flywheel O recieved from KEP, everything fit perfectly, I also test fit the starter, and then removed it for safe keeping, it also fit correct

Transmission Height

okay here's a perfect example of measure 5 times build once, and for gods sake only tack weld in place till you know it works. I will have alot of grinding to do to relocate the engine up about 3 inches. The angle is not as bad as the photo shows only about 2 deg's off center for the axels, but way to low.

Rear View

Here's a good shot of the transmission height before I raise it up 3 inches, will pretty much disappear behind the fiberglass, plus I can redo the cross member out of tub to get more ground clearance. Like I said before, measure 5 times for your one time build. I have created alot of excess work for myself
