What Bell housing is in an 86 with a 4.3
Not really familiar with the 4.3 trucks and wanted to know if they ran the same Bell housing as the V8. I pulled the hydraulic pedal assembly and would like the bell housing as well if it's the same. It had a SM465 bolted up to it. Truck was originally a three on the tree so the transmission had been changed. Any help is appreciated

Re: What Bell housing is in an 86 with a 4.3
Thank you. I knew the bolt pattern is the same. I just wanted to make sure it used the same so*e flywheel and clutch.

4.3v6 / sbc / bbc / LS / 6.2d / 6.5d / straight 6 and few others all the same bell on gm . thats why there so easy to swap stuff around on in my opinion .

Re: What Bell housing is in an 86 with a 4.3
I have a hydraulic bell out of an ‘87 4.3. Its for the larger clutch. Looks just like the one in my ‘83 that was behind a 6.2 diesel except for the slave cylinder mount. Any bell with the SM465 should be for the 12” clutch. I think 4 speed od manuals or 3 speed manuals got the bell for the smaller clutch with a 6 cylinder in the ‘80s
