Hello:

Just wondering what, if any, the GMC engine from the late fifties share bellhousing patterns with. Are the GMC engine bellhousing bolt patterns the same as a Chevy? Someone told me that the later model GM engine (250, 292) wilt bolt in?

Here's the deal. I'm offered a nice old '57 GMC 2 ton with a 12' dump body. I belive it has a 270 straight 6, but it has a rod through the block. What would be the easiest way to get it back under it's own power?

Thanks
