Re: Cracked bellhousing.....

That ain't no crack, that's a hole! I've never seen one crack, that's why I had to look. Looks like the clutch flew apart... the reason drag cars use blow-shields. The truth is, that's not hurting a thing. For that matter, you could patch it over if you're concerned about water getting in... which I doubt any will. How long has it been this way? I guess it could be weakened by the hole, if there are also cracks. Keep an eye on the parts board and Craigslist

Idk I bought whole truck like this and pulled it out that way! Don't wanna put a built 383 in front of that because under the grease there is cracks adjacent to the hole. Yea I'll be camping in the for sale section for a while....SMH

I thought that hole was for the Export Clutch Fork.
