This situation is or was a mess. I have a glide to Mopar BB Ultrabell but from my and other pg/mopar bb combo folks experience availability of those is(was) nonexistent. I loaned my pg/bb ultrabell to a friend while my Duster was being fronthalved for struts as He had one on order for over 9 months last year. My friend called Summit Racing/JW multiple times with multiple 'availability' dates being given and not met. Reid or another pg/mopar bb case/bellhousing is the best solution but that takes ~3X in expense for case and bellhousing. I hope it has changed for folks who want to run pg's.

I just ordered one from Jegs, they charged my cc and said it will be "drop shipped" direct from JW...

Got email stating the expected delivery date is Oct 11.

I'll update when it gets delivered

I have a brand new one that never has been run. It was sent back has latest machine update, I have crank adaptor and flywheel for it to all new. I would make someone a good deal.

FYi when ordered a Jw case they kept changing drop ship date for six months till I cancelled order!

Talked to JW this morning, to see how realistic the Oct 11 ship date is. They say Oct is not likely, Nov is much more realistic. Apparently the changes at the foundry are close to being finalized, and they will start making good parts very soon.

*fingers crossed*

I ordered mine in April. The date just keeps moving. Almost ready to put the 727 back in.

Hmm, Interesting. I think I heard the same story when I put the glide in my dart in 2009...

I ended up buying a bell off of someone here on Moparts....

You guys would be WAY ahead of the game to just get an ATI adapter kit and use the stock chevy case.....
