The new bellhousing from Keisler uses a automatic bell, I think its from a 4L80 but I am not sure. As you can see it uses a 1/2 thick aluminum adapter plate to convert it. Extra throw out bearings spacers came with the bell. The quicktime bell will not clear the T56 Magnums fron oil pump bosses. I like the fact that its 13 lbs lighter and matches the aluminum block

Before the motor goes in , I wanted to do most of the sheet metal work and repairs to the engine compartment . Looks like the upper cowl (cudas are notorious for rusting there) and LH inner fender needs replacement. I spent the day drilling spotwelds and carfully removing sheet metal with a hand chisel. This is what I got done today.
