I also run the small bellhousing. 157 tooth w/tci flex plate.
Performance Automatic makes the spacer plate that works great. Make sure you get 50 oz balance componets.

I may be wrong, but if you use a case fill trans, you probably have to use the small bellhousing to get a dipstick to fit. I believe most of the large bellhousings came on the pan fill type.
