I am building up a late model 302HO out of a 92 Mustang. I plan on running a C4 with it, but I'm not sure what bellhousing I will need to use. I already know that I have to use the FRPP 157 tooth flexplate to mate the two, I just need to find the right bellhousing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
my '91 5.0 (347) has a...164 tooth, 28 oz. flexplate w/large bellhousing... TCI Auto 513310 - TCI Automatic Transmission Bellhousings
i have the performance automatic bell it will work with the small or big flexplate http://www.summitracing.com/parts/PMA-PA26577/ brad
If I'm not mistaken, the bell size is determined by if the trans is a pan fill or case fill. Pan fill is large bell, case fill is small bell. There could be a large bell for a case fill, but I don't think you can put a small bell on a pan fill. Flex plate must match bell size or the starter won't engage.
its the other way a pan fill is a big bell and carries a 164 tooth these came in heavy cars and trucks. a case fill is small bell and carries a 157 tooth flexplate these came in mavericks.
Thanks for correcting me, I had it bassackwards . I corrected my post above. That's my one mistake for the day
