sbc bellhousing question

I was talking to my dad about the starter hole in the block of my 51 being cracked. He said if I found an old model straight shift with a cast iron bellhousing that I could put that ****** in my truck since the starter bolts to the bellhousing. I have found a 70 C-10 with a 350 3spd for $200. I was wondering if you knew what kind of bellhousing would be on that truck. Thanks for any help

 

70 would use the starter that bolts to the block. Last year for bell mount starters was about 64-65 as I recall.

you might luck out,ive seen those trucks with cast bell housings in them,if it dosent ,those cast bells arent hard to find.i have 5 sitting in my garage right now

 

63 had the bellhousing that starter bolts to you will need a 53 tooth fly wheel though rest will work.ran into some of the same stuff when swappin the 230 to a later250 in my truck

 

Chevy trucks with manual transmission used a bellhousing mount starter thru 1972.

 

thanks for the help. I am going to get the truck after graduation and try and start the straight shift swap
