Ok guys I'm needing some help (Please) My dad gave me his 65 GMC LB fleet side a few years ago before he passed and he had put a 73 front end w/power disc brakes and a 1977 350 (tired) in it.It was a 305 v6 with a granny 4 speed w/mounts on the bellhousing which he used.
Now I have rebuilt a 68 327 w/muncie m22. with a 11 inch fly wheel and clutch just to find out the aluminum bellhousing on the m22 was for a 10.5 flywheel and won't fit over my clutch.
I was thinking of using the old cast iron bellhousing w/mounts on it but the center hole is larger than the m22 alignment ring next to the input shaft does that matter? The mounting bolts are the same. It will help to use the old bellhousing because clutch pedal arms and rods are the same as they were.
Should I use the mounts on the bellhousing and a tranny mount it has regular motor mounts on the motor also? Or should I let them float and use the tranny mount? Or all of them? I'm going to use a newer drive shaft (one piece) out of lb chevy. Old drive shaft w/carrier bearing is now too long. Thanks, Ron
