    Wide ratio, lower 1st gear than the M21 or 22. Good deal.

    That looks familiar. Now we have the same top gear ratio and axle ratio. IMG_8323.jpeg IMG_8325.jpeg

    What size is your flywheel? That’s a small flywheel bellhousing in your pic.

    Small bell left. Large bell right. IMG_3276.jpeg

    Shoot I thought like the big bell when Lloyd sent a pic yesterday, but now I see it more clearly. A stock tri 5 bell will work

    I didn’t realize there was a size difference in bellhousings. Is the small one for the 10” clutch?

    Looks like a chev pattern but the registration hole looks real big, but they make adapter rings for that

    According to the suffix it's a 275 horse/powerglide. The pistons tell a different story though.
