Stock bell or scattershield
 

With 650 to 700 HP from a LS equipped T56, would you guys run a stock or a Mcleod bell housing. I know in the old days it was crazy to run without a scatter shield, but I see more and more high HP cars with stock bell housings.

x2!

Better safe than sorry! No need to be pulling pieces of clutch and bellhousing out of your right foot!:(

I agree.....better safe than sorry. They will complicate things but the quicktime are smaller which I have on my car. Really a pretty nice piece.

Todd did you have any fitment problems with the Quicktime bell housing? did it push the trans back further in the tunnel?

I have A Quicktime Bellhousing Very nice piece,
LS-7 to a TKO 600 trans ,very little runout not like the others and lighter too.

Wayne,
I never had a stock bellhousing so I don't know. Plenty of bellhousing to tunnel, z bar, header, starter clearance with it though. I had about .015 runout on mine. Needed offset dowels but that's not to rare on a blow proof bellhousing from my understanding. I think all my labor centering it paid off since she shifted super nice today.
