Day 2 Vintage Blow proof Bell Housing

[L78 Fred]

This bell housing was on my 69 BB pace car when I bought it in 78 and took it off the road in 79; I do not know the manufacturer.

Excellent condition with the exception of the road rash on the bottom flange, which can be straightened out with out too much effort (rose bud and ford wrench).

I can deliver to the Camaro Nationals or Carsile in June.
$175 plus shipping
Thank you SYC/Charlie

LAKEWOOD PRE-1974..Do you have the Block saver plate?

[L78 Fred]

I am not sure which one you are taking about?
I took this off the engine in 79 and had a few beers since then
I don't throw much away so if it had it and I can identify it I will check the garage location it
Was sitting in for the last 35 years
Thank you for the ID info

Sam, where did you get that color paint for your blow proof, and where did you get the hardware?

[Day2_69Z]

The clutch sight/feelers gauge hole is on the late 60's - early 70's style bell. (now outlawed by SEMA & NHRA AS ARE THE 2 PC BOLT ON Clutch access doors on the much older units) Two different block saver plates were used for the same style bell as well.... the earliest is louvered for ventilation later is the 3 hole design as in Sam's pics. The 3 hole is still made today but the plates are totally different. Early ones had square nuts tack welded on, new ones have hex nuts & the flange & ears on the older plates are much larger than the newer ones.

Sam, I finally found an old set of STAHL SB 1 5/8 tubes. They came from an F/S 350-J/S 302 69 Z/28. I also have a set of 1969 Appliance 1 3/4 with long tubes/collectors & welded on square flanges.
