hello
I have a 3-speed saginaw out of a 56 chevy steepside. I am putting a chevy v8 in the truck and want to use the same tranny. Can someone tell me what bellhousing will connect the two?

Use a 55-72 v-8 or 63-72 6 cyl bell housing. Use the matching flywheel & starter. I did one 2 years ago & just got through with another one. Their is another post somewhere close by on this same subject.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
