Technical 891/365 Bellhousing Differences

Made a mistake and bought a used truck bellhousing as a spare for my 59 Corvette (mine has a crack). It is a truck bellhousing #3815891 and my car uses 3733365. Can I use it on my Borg Warner early T-10? The Hole and trans. bolt pattern seems the same. What might other differences be? Thanks

 

The truck bellhousing takes a different motor mount that only has one bolt, the passenger car has two. I've never done it, but have been told you can drill and tap the two holes. Everything else is the same.

 

hanks, I w

I will look into this. Thanks

 

the lower transmission to bellhousing bolt holes on the truck bell don't have threads, but you can put a nut inside, and use a longer bolt.

 

For show and tell purposes this guy claims this is a 56/58 Corvette bellhousing.

I'd say you could redrill the truck bellhousing for the mounts.

Truck being the one above and Car/ Corvette being the one below.

 

Yuppers, true there. you run a bolt down though the bellhousing, through the upper half of the mount, through the crossmember, through the bottom half of the mount and then put the washer (s) and nut on it.

 

Things are looking good here. Thanks

 

I was worried about the depth being the same. Thought the truck might have a different depth than passenger car/truck?

 

chevys were really good about all being the same depth, all the transmission input shafts were the same length, cars and trucks from 55-90s on the V8 and straight six.

 

Doesn't the fork come out on the right side on a truck?

 

only on the ones that had the hydraulic clutch.

 

Great! Thanks
