GM Dad,
Regarding the bell housing, I did not (still don't) have enough knowledge about the different bell housings. The one I used has a boss on it for the bell crank for the mechanical clutch. So I knew that had to be on it. I wasn't sure I could find the perfect bell housing for less than the adapter. Since then I have done some research and have found one that may work on my next engine (another 250). If it does, I will post the casting number to save others some hassle and dinero.
The tranny is great! I had a 4 speed SM 465 with granny low. It needed a higher gear for cruising. On my engine, I am going to swap out for an earlier (non intergrated) head. I have an offy intake manifold and the head but I need some advise on the carb (2bbl) and headers. I am condsidering T. Langdon's cast iron headers and his holley/weber 2 bbl. I am not sure how a "progressive" 2 bbl works. Any thoughts on the setup?
Thanks.
Regards,
Ken
