The bearing retainer hole is 4 3/4" but the information he has does not show a 65 or 66 bell housing with that size of bearing retainer hole. The casting number 2468372 shows it is for a 65 or 66 B body. Any information is appreciated. Last edited by 6pkRB; 02/26/18 09:44 PM.

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it. JB Rhinehart, Realist A-Body's RULE!

The only difference I see in yours vs his is yours has a casting date on it for 69. His does not have a casting date. Any idea what his is worth. He probably wants to sell it. If they did bore it out, they sure did a good job.
