Default 429 is Bellhousing plate needed for Manual Tran
I've been searching - looks like an Auto tranny needs the Plate (between bellhousing and engine). I have a 1969 429 - I've built for a Cobra project. It came with a bellhousing and clutch for a manual tranny. I've been carring this motor around with me for about 40 yrs - and I didn't think I lost anything but I don't have a plate.
Do I need this plate ? all it would seem to do is move the Bellhousing back about .060" ? doesn't seem significant. However I do need to enclose the lower section in front of the flywheel to keep small animals out.
Where would I get one if I need it?
THanks,
PJ
