Looking through my buddies barn and found this. He said it was for a Ford, but unsure what. I could not find any casting numbers on it and its stamped steel.

sorry for the size, I dont know how to make them smaller.

Looks close to an FE pattern, but it looks like there are a couple of differences.

Not sure what the y-block pattern looks like, that might be it.

Stay tuned, it will ring a bell with someone--so to speak.

I agree post in the older forums. I am pretty sure no Y block or more modern engine ever had a stamped bell housing. The number of bolts also looks large. Good Luck.

I figured it was flathead ND. I'm gathering things up for the swap meet this weekend. I'll post on earlier post for more info. Thanks again.

Call it whatever you want......I'd pay up to $50 if I needed one. And no, I don't need one.

It's one of those old parts that: because they are usually never damaged in a crash, never really wear out with use, very heavy, not likely to rust away, and too new to have been melted down in WWII scrap drives, their value is limited.
