OK, the bellhousing is all done. I put a plug in the existing mounting hole as Tim suggested and drilled and tapped it.. Isn’t it funny how you overlook the simplest solution when you are concentrating on how hard the task is going to be…. Thanks Tim!

I forgot to mention in my previous post to be sure and use tapping fluid when tapping the holes for the bolts.

I am going to put my extra 350 crate engine in the truck while I have everything apart so I removed the TH400 transmission that I had bolted to it and installed the Manual flywheel and pilot bushing, installed the clutch assembly, and bolted the transmission up. It went together without any problems.

Hopefully I can start installing it today.
