Tranny spacers

I have a 71 351w bolting up to a late model auto C-4. Does anyone know the correct spacer size. As well as a newbie question what side is the spacer on

Would you share with us what you are referring to as a spacer?

I'm guessing here that you are talking about D2TZ-7007-A.

That one is for 289/302/351W to C4. Those engines share a common bolt pattern and external dimensions.


The spacer goes between the block and the transmission. The crankshaft wouldn't be involved directly with the spacer I don't believe.

Here's some pics on Macs (and better prices) of the item, assuming D2TZ-7007-A is what you are asking about.
