Howdy gang.
I'm ready to bolt my new 335HP 6-bolt 289 to my narrow bolt pattern
toploader. I have a few options.
1. I have a difficult to find 6 bolt to narrow toploader aluminum
bellhousing but it has a crack around one of the bolt holes on the
flange that attach to the engine. I'm not real sure these things can be
welded or not. Any insights?
2. I have an old-school Ansen scattershield that looks really cool and
should fit in the tunnel without modification but weighs about a
thousand pounds. Problem with this is I would have to use something
like a McLeod hydraulic throwout bearing. Is this worth the cost?
3. I have heard of people having the narrow bolt pattern machined into
one of the more plentiful wide pattern bellhousings. I was wondering how
this has worked out for others.
Other options I haven't thought about?
Thanks,
Bob
