I have the aluminum bell housing that was original for the transmission. I thought I had everything I need until I realized that there are no holes in the bell housing to mount the starter. [IMG]http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn214/jfnar/68%20GMC/IMG_01301_zps2qev0837.jpg[/IMG] In all the posts I've read about using the MY6 transmission I don't remember this issue being mentioned. Can someone tell me where I'm going wrong please? This is the last obstacle I have to clear before I install the engine. Thanks. Jeff
