Cool Having a tough time........

Finding a bellhousing for a 1985 f-350 dually.

Engine is a 460 cu in 7.5L v8
Transmission is a 4 speed manual ( slave cylinder type).

The Bellhousing BROKE around the little rounded stud the clutch fork actuates. ( I guess thats what you call it, it interfaces a little rounded stud)

Thanks for any help

Aaron

If this helps widen your search, 460 is same bellhousing pattern as 351m/400

Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market shows a few 460 engines in North Carolina,

Years back the slave cylinder boss snapped clean off the T-19's bell housing in my truck.
THAT was interesting - in traffic.
Since they started putting the ZF with its integral bellhousing behind the 7.5 in the late '80's I'd imagine it's not easy to find a separate bell housing anymore.

Anyway, here's a listing of auto wreckers in North Carolina. I'd be calling around or checking inventory online.

Speaking of the ZF, this would be a good excuse to upgrade to the ZF, and have an added bonus of OD for better hyw MPG.
