Re: [Chevelle-list] Bell housings

[Michael Pell]

It will very likely hold up.  But what it will not hold is a flywheel or clutch explosion.  If you're running a lot of HP, and/or like to spin it to high RPM and/or running sticky tires, you really should get a steel bellhousing (aka scattershield).    It's far cheaper to buy new parts than to replace feet.  :-) Mike -- I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, Than live my life as if there isn't, And die to find out there is. http://www.christianet.com Check out my webpage at http://www.ProStreetCar.com TREMEC Distributor at http://www.5speedTransmissions.com Team Chevelle member #1778 (Gold), ACES member #1377 Hoosier State Chevelle Assoc (http://www.IndianaChevelles.com) #6 Ryan Langstraat wrote: Is it true that the biggest engine that a bell housings stamped 3858403 is a 327?  It is aluminum and if that is true I dont know that i trust it.  Not sure what to do with it at this point.  It was given to me though so if there is any chance it would hold up to regular street driving please let me know you guy's thoughts.   Thanks Ryan Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
