I just posted this in reply to a "hello" thread on another part of the forum, but I thought it may be useful if I copied it here too. I have recently fitted a Getrag 265 5 speed manual to an LSx engine (L33 5.3 to be specific) and so, in case anybody is interested, here are the parts I used:
Clutch disc: McLeod mopar unit, part number 260121M
Flywheel: McLeod part number 460535 (LSx Only)
Pressure plate: Sachs part number BBC5552
Release Fork: Sachs P/N SF1001
Release bearing: Sachs P/N SN1716SA
Pivot Ball: Lakewood P/N 15501
Bellhousing: a "621" style BBC bellhousing.
The release bearing requires an internal collar to fit the Getrag 'box, this was supplied by AK Sportscars as part of the adapter kit.
The spigot bush was also supplied by AK as part of the adapter kit, so I'm afraid I don't know a part number or other source for that.
If you were fitting this to a SBC engine, you would need a different flywheel as there is a difference between the crank ends. You can use a "standard" flywheel for the SBC, although you'd need to check the size as I believe the 153 tooth flywheel may not be big enough for the clutch, and you may require the 168 tooth version.
I'm not going to tempt fate, but it appears to have gone together with no real issues.
