    The 250 six shared the same 302 bellhousing.

    170 and 200 are same, 250 and 302 are same. 170-200 won't fit 250-302 and vice versa....

    Are you looking for a 70 manual bellhousing? I may have one.

    Not for sure yet. Will a 170 bolt up to a 4 cyl trans from an early 80's mustang cobra?

    You could have a 200-I6. The T-5 will mount but you need a spacer for the longer input shaft.

    Search the tech threads for a "How To". Or, fordsix.com
