You better check the run-out and make sure the mounting surface is parallel to the block face before you stuff it in there. I've never heard of one that couldn't use shims and dowels to line it up to the crank centerline correctly.

I wouldn't run a car like yours without a blowshield. I had a Hay's clutch come apart in my big block 4-speed 69 Camaro a long time ago during a street race on Rt.2 in Conn and was glad for the Lakewood, not only did it sound like a bomb going off it dented the housing from the inside, imagine if that was a factory housing and that Camaro probably only made about 425hp.

As far as fitment goes, how about a quicktime, they look like they would go in there easier, worth investigating at least.

Have fun but be safe,
