We were talking about welding a heim to the end of the fork but I really like the extra adjustment of that set up!!! Thanks for the pic.

Not bellhousing related but I'm getting ready to re stab the motor and get the trans mounted..... are you guys using any type of trans mount or bolting it directly to the crossmember??

I used a Energy Suspension brand polyurethane transmission mount, Jerico said to use it.

I'm a dealer for McLeod and can usually beat anyone's prices. Get your part number and pm it to me. Same for Edelbrock, Comp, JE.

For those that are looking for real numbers. The old bellhousing is the standard Lakewood SBC PN 15000 (30.6 lbs). The Mcleod is the new aluminum style with the titanium insert (14.8 lbs). This is only the bellhousing and does not include the motor plate. The weight savings is 15.8 lbs.
