Conversation Between petemcl and oldschoolduck

Sorry about the delay in responding but your message ended up in visitor messages for some reason, I believe that you are right about the bolt pattern. And yes, I did have to grind some off the block to get the starter to fit.

Hi Pete,
I've seen here that you have put a 4r70w trans behind your 8ba.
for the moment i am do the same thing but with a aode trans, the boltpattern is the same i think.
Did you have to cut a piece from the block to get the starter clearence?
