I have the stock 2001 LS style bellhousing that came with the nv4500 but I'm pretty sure it is the same length as your original sm465 bell. I will be watching your swap like a hawk. Once again, THANKS.
That will make a sweet combo for a Blazer!

Yeah, they should all be the same length although the later style manual transmissions that use the internal slave/release bearing may be a tad longer. I do have a stock NV4500 bell housing for the internal slave/release bearing, like you are talking about, from a 2003 GM P-chassis lying around that I can compare to the 465 bell if you like. The AA bell is already on the engine though.
