late model v8 into a carrier

[rob love]

They are not ocerly rare in this neck of the woods, and if you watch ebay for a few weeks you don't even have to leave your home to find one. Search for 8BA bellhousing and there are two parts you need to buy. You will need the bellhousing and you will need the lower plate that goes between the bellhousing and the oil pan. Here is a photo of each which I have taken off ebay of recent items sold. The items will usually run from $40 to $100.

Not sure about the carrier variant you are working on but I had to remove some of the lower portion of this bellhousing to get it to fit in a North American carrier. I also had to modify the oil pan. Some other merely cut the floor.
