I remember that one, it's for a truck Big Block, uses the iron nose starter with 3 horizontal bolts, has pads for rear engine mounts. Usually used with a big Clark, Fuller or New Process 5 speed, single disc clutch. Lower transmission bolt holes not threaded, bolts go in from the clutch side. It is not any kind of SAE bolt pattern because it bolts to an adapter to mate to the standard Chevy bell housing bolt pattern as sweetk30 pointed out. There are SAE bell housings that bolt to a Big Block Chevy, but this isn't one of them. Look for a 427 with an Allison or a twin-disc clutch, 10 or 13 speed. I think most of those are SAE. One number that I found that lists as SAE #2 for Chevy V-8 is 14001929, that might be what you are looking for.
