I have an early M20 (casting no. 3831704) that I think that I want to put behind my 1954 chevy 261 six. However, the diameter of the bearing retainer is about 4.182 inches and the bore in each of the three bellhousings that I have is about 4.680 inches. Is another bearing retainer available or is an adapter ring available, or could one be turned by a normal machine shop?
I also have an early Corvette V-8 3-speed that I could use. Are rebuild or shifter kits available for this transmission?
I nkow that I should probably use a more modern transmission, but I have been dragging these around for over forty years, and I want to stay in the early sixties or earlier, except for real safety items.
