 "found a crack in my aluminum bellhousing so I'm trying to find a
replacement.  It goes from a narrow bolt pattern toploader to 6 bolt 289.
I can't seem to find a part number on it through all the grunge.  I
believe a C5DA-6394-A is for a wide pattern toploader.

Was the narrow toploader to 6 bolt small block some sort of Tiger special?"



Nothing Tiger specific with that bellhousing.  Ford made them for a short time
to use up their stock of narrow bolt pattern top loaders.  I bought a Ford
aluminum bell housing with both bolt patterns off of Ebay around a year ago.
Some sellers think they found the holy grail of bell housings and expect  many
dollars for them.  With some looking  you can find them for a reasonable
price.
