    Looking for a bellhousing to convert auto to manual trans.

    Thanks for looking, any help greatly appreciated. I know I can buy one from specialty shops for $$$, I just wonder if anyone knows of one that's used.

    NCTim: A fellow board member I believe still has one for sale. His handle is kid442w30, his name is Ken and can be reached @ kid442w30@Yahoo.com. Ken is an upstanding guy and you will receive a good quality part.

    Do you have a picture of what it looks like. Got several old bell housings that I'm not sure what they are for.

    I'm trying to add pictures here but can't seem to get them to appear any larger.

    NCtim, did you ever find a bell housing? I'm searching for a 4 speed bell housing as well. Does anyone know if an early Buick V6 manual bell housing is the same as the V8?

    The bolt pattern on the 215 is different than the standard BOP on the 300/340/350. Rover bell housings from the 3.5/3.6/3.9/4.0 should fit, but what manual trans fit on the other end I don't know offhand. I would check MGV8 forum.

    Robert, do you still have the bell housing off the 340?
