TRANS ADAPTER-CHEVROLET - Lakewood Bellhousing - Chevrolet

Lakewood Bellhousing - Chevrolet
The Lakewood 77-150 bellhousing connects small block and big block Chevy engines to transmissions utilizing the GM standard pattern such as the Muncie, Saginaw, Borg Warner T10, and Tremec TKO or TKX transmissions. This bellhousing is designed to fit GM full and midsized vehicles from '58 - '87. This bellhousing is not S.F.I. certified which is required by many sanctioning bodies for cars running 11.49 or faster in the quarter mile. The adapter bellhousing is an excellent choice for street rods, street machines, or truck applications where the use of a S.F.I. bellhousing is not necessary. This bellhousing does not include or accept an engine block plate.
OEM starters are recommended for ease of fitment. It is very important that the tooth count (153 or 168) of the starter match the tooth count of the flywheel to ensure proper engagement. Two primary options: a 12 3/4-inch flywheel (153 teeth) where the nose cone will have two attachment bolt holes across from each other (inline) and a 14-inch flywheel (168 teeth) where the attachment bolt holes will be offset (diagonal). This applies mainly to factory GM starters on passenger cars/light trucks and does not apply to later model versions (w/ gear reduction) or aftermarket and mini starters. Be sure to match your clutch to your flywheel as well.
