    Hi everybody. I just bought a t90 to gm adapter that was new in the box, but didn't have any instructions. I was wondering if anyone knew what bearing retainer to use on the adapter. Tried asm420 but bolt pattern is to big. Thanks

    Most of the adapters used the T-90 bearing retainer.

    Can you post a pic? Host on Photobucket or similar and link here. Some used the short input T-90 retainer that bolted to the adapter, some used the long pickup/Wagon T-90 retainer that bolted to the transmission and extended through the adapter, and some adapter kits came with an aluminum "extension" that slid onto the T-90 retainer and was held in place with a set screw. I've seen a very few that used a GM or Ford bearing retainer (depending on application) that bolted to the adapter.

    Trans-Dapt part # TD 25-98 is a 2-5/8 thick aluminum adapter that is intended for use with T90-J to GM engines.
    It utilizes a GM bearing retainer. GM # 8741458
