No. It unbolts like any V-8. There is a mounting plate attached to the engine to accept the larger houseing. That's where that upper hole in the pattern on truck engines comes in.

does anyone know what starter the C-60 came with? it seems to have a configuration i have never seen. the bellhousing is huge and the transmission has 1.5" input shaft with 13" clutch disc/pressure plate.

That is probably a larger bellhousing and adapter for it so you can use a larger flywheel and clutch. Unless you'll be putting it in another big truck you may want to downsize.
I'm certainly not a gas engine or V8 expert, but I've seen the larger setups in the bigger trucks, that may be what you have?

It may well be a double disc clutch which won't fit a pickup. However the block is the same and a pickup clutch housing and flywheel will fit the engine.

10micron is not using the bell housing starter and flywheel I am it will be staying in the C60 that the 327 came from I believe that he is asking the starter question for me. I however not only need a starter for this setup I would sure like a 16.5" flywheel for a 454 to go with this setup.

If he is just looking for a starter, a 1108485 Delco will work and they are available. They fit Chev and GMC medium trucks from the late 50's until the mid 70's and possibly later.
