Fortunately, I had a V8 bellhousing and was able to bolt the Saginaw and V8 bellhousing together and got it all bolted up to the engine. It fit really well. Next, I'm going to swap shifters and then I think I'll be able to put the cab back on
The diff on the bellhousings is 67 or older (small hole), or 68 up (large hole). This applies for I6 or V8 Very nice job on the frame! L
