hi Joeand thank you.i had originally planed to cast or machine my own bell-=
housing for my TR3. cost became a big issue, so i abandoned that. had the 3=
d model all ready to go!
but there is a supplier in Australia who sells the bell housing for around =
500.00 US back when i bought mine.
all the other stuff i can machine myself, flywheel, slave cylinder adapter,=
pilot bushing etc
i managed to build my own for less than 1000.00 and my prop shaft solution =
was far better than any i have seen.
so i take it your telling me my TR3 bell housing will bolt up to the GT6 bl=
ock?

Frank -
I haven't done anything like this but I'll comment anyway...
The flanges on later gearboxes were thicker (and thus had more strength) so=
I think you would want to go with those.
You do realize that the TR bell housing & gearbox case are all one casting =
so (I presume) you're looking at cutting and welding to make a bolt-up bell=
housing for the Toyota box?=C2=A0 There are, of course, kits for all this.
