FE Bellhousing Question
I am built my ford 390FE and thinking about running a 5speed TKO-600 behind it. My question I have is mainly about what parts I need to get. I can get a Quicktime Bellhousing but prefer to use my bell housing I already have and get the adapter plate.
I have a C5TA-7505-B bell housing. Do anyone have the measurements on this bell housing. Is it the 6 1/4 or 6 3/4 and how big is the hole where the transmission mount at also. I know it is the wide bell housing, but need to know to ensure the adapter plate is available because I prefer not to spend $600 on another bell housing if i do not have to.
I would take these measurements but my transmission is currently at my house in Texas(I'm currently stationed in Hawaii). I will be going home in a few months and want to be able to have all the parts waiting for me instead of having to order parts while I am there and wait on them.
If anyone has done this swap with this bell housing or done this swap period, please chime in. I'm taking all advice.
Thanks

If it is a truck bell for an FE, it is 6 3/4".
This outfit sells the transmissions, with a shortened input shaft for the car depth bells. They also sell the Quicktime stuff. They were quick to answer an email I sent them some time ago, so they may be able to help you with your questions, if not parts etc. Good luck with it.
