Bellhousing Template

[Monkey Man]

I sent someone from on here the lexan template of my engine conversion bellhousing adapter plate but for the life of me I cannot remember who, whoever does have it and if you have finished with it can you please let me know as another member of the forum wishes use it.

Best Regards - MM

which engine conversion??????

Sorry, I should have been more specific, I made a template from a lexan sheet so it's easy to make up a 5/8" adapter plate and mic up the mount holes and more importantly, the alignment indexes for my 318 V8 engine conversion. The difference with my conversion is it uses all the standard truck parts from the bellhousing and flywheel back and is all V8 from the front of the bellhousing to the front engine mount. I even use the standard clutch plate as I have found that if you dump too much power it has a tendancy to slip a little bit (thus warning you to take your foot off the loud pedal) as opposed to tearing the arse out of something in the driveline. I have not had it slip in the course of normal "sensible" on or off road driving.
