has a /6. would the SB mtr mounts from a 70's (80's?) 1/2 ton pickup fit to swap in a 318/360? thank you for your time.

Hello Jimmy. I'm a little confused on the bell mount issue (truck newbie). I did have another 65 D100 years ago that I never got running & I bought a 727 crossmember from a 66 in a JY that bolted in that 65 perfectly & if going with that then the stick bell mounts are unused. I'd like to go BB with one of the "262" monstrous cast iron bells/172 tooth flywheel & a granny 3 or 4 speed but I understand they are rare/pricey. Was curious about the later SB side of the block mtr mounts as I have a set if I have to settle for SB/727 for now. I do have a set of the 65 BB block mtr mounts & there's a 262 bell on ebay for an arm & a leg & that leaves the trans. too many gaps in my knowledge here. EDIT how hard are those 172T 'wheels to come by?

with more thought I think I want exactly what I want to swap in there the first time when I jerk the /6-3 speed outa there. I want the granny first gear 4 sp for my 451 BB. I do have the correct bb mtr mts. What bell/'wheel/trans do I start searching for? Thank you for your time. EDIT there is a "262" BB bell, the heavy cast iron beast on eBay for 385 buy it now which seems a bit exorbitant & it is listed as a 4 sp bell. I HAD one of those & it came with a 3 speed trans in a pile of parts that came with the /6 truck the exact same situation that I am wanting to finish/duplicate now except that I want a granny 4 sp
