Default Re: 70 SS chevelle, Would it have overspray on bell...

It really depends on the painter as the engine was coming down the line. The bellhousing was installed on all Tonawanda big blocks when they were painted. Some have very little, some are about a 4" band and many are painted entirely. Just depends. The shift fork (sans boot) and the inspection cover would also have overspray on it. I have had a couple original cars in the shop here where the inspection cover was not painted and there was paint overspray on the ring gear however.
