Hey Gents, I built up this engine but I didn't get a bellhousing with it. I have the original 4 speed that was hooked up to a 318 when I got the truck. Will the original 4 speed handle 400 horse power and what casting # bellhousing will work for me???

 

I have several MT bellhousings taken from B & E bodies. Not sure it they will work in a truck tho.

 

not sure if the tranny can handle it
you have the 23 spline tranny I assume?

 

It's the NP 4530, I didn't check to see how many splines were on it.

 

is that a newer tranny?

 

Come to find out the tranny is a np 445 I guess they stamped it 4530, same thing as a np 435 with a different gear ratio.
