Default Bell housing alignment

Phil
That bell housing alignment is very critical and no job for someone with out the right skills and tools for the job..How many back yard mechanics have tapered reemers or taper pins...
Having your bellhousing misaligned is bad..They dedicate a few paragraphs on Bellhousing alignment in the MB-C2..cCan't remember in the MB.F1 but same -same for critical on the old flathead,.

Hi Guys... aren't we wandering a bit off Gilles question?

"It has a valve cover with two top acorn nuts, also the right side cover is very big and the casting number GM 839253 so what it is????"

Cheers! Mike

Default 261

Nice to see my webpages being referred-to and being used!

The 261 cu in is taller than the 235 and has 'Captain's Bars' on the block. The head has extra steam holes cf. the 235 although the 235 head will fiot on a 261 and can be modified I gather to match up holes on thne block. The CR will be higher than the 261.
