Is it possible to weld a new or different bellhousing on a transmission?
And if so how?

The Tilton setup is cool.. however.. you must run their little tiny 5.5 clutch package with it. Most of those bellhousings are designed for IMCA modified cars with dry sump systems (so they can get the engine really low in the chassis)


Well if you are gonna do it might as well go all out. You can run their 7.25 in clutch as well. Lots of Winston Cup cars use these. There are pretty cheap if you buy them used.

SO you have to drop the clutch and hammer down from every red light. At least it will look good and sound nice.


To run the tranny upside down you will need a pump and some fittings. Just make a fitting to screw into the drain plug. Then build small manifold for multiple lines to exit from. Take each line to different points in the tranny and tap the case and srew in some fittings. Voila' you have a spraybar equipped tranny.
