Aftermarket Bellhousing and Crossmember
Been a spell... Anyhoo...
So I now have my Dad's 1970 CST/10. It's got a fairly hot SBC in it and a BW Super T-10 4 speed in it. The stock cast iron bellhousing, and also the stock bellhousing mounts from the frame. Future plans are a hotter SBC and I'd like to eliminate the stock bellhousing and mounts for a lighter aftermarket bellhousing. I'd have to move to an aftermarket transmission crossmember as well. As it is now the T-10 is just hanging out there with no mount on it, and been that way since 1974. I just hope I don't shoot myself in the foot here and then snap the ears off the transmission on a hard launch or shift with the transmission mount at the rear of the transmission. Maybe I'm just overthinking things. Planning on a couple drag and drive events in the future. It's not gonna be a 9 second rocket, But realistically in the low 12's, and maybe breaking into the 11's. I'm reworking the T-10 to take it and just want to see what some opinions would be, or recommendations? Thanks to you lot as always, Gary
