    Had this BPO bellhousing for yrs, pulled it out to take a good look at it n discovered the starter hump is on the drivers side only. Bolt holes line-up. Accumulating 4 speed parts for a conversion. I have a mini-starter installed. Is there going to be an issue with this bellhousing? Do I need the starter hump on the passengers side since, well thats where the starters located? Going on a 455 in my Lark.

    Thanks

    You may have an Olds only bell housing. What is the number on your housing?

    Ok part #9783111. If this is an Oldsmobile only bellhousing does anyone want to trade this for a BOP bellhousing? Doesn"t hurt to ask...:Do No:

    9783111......

    is not olds its 66-69 Pontiac Over Head Cam 6 manual trans..978 means its actually a 66

    thats why the starter knob is in a weird spot..its OHC only...after i thought about it i looked at the one i had and its the same part number..i actually took it off the car.....its an aluminum paper weight..and thats about it...
