Not Ranked
Thanks guys. Brent - I think you have a different BH. Maybe it was the version before the one I bought. Mine was SFI(?) Approved
There was another thread out there but it went by by. This bellhousing was the newest modular from Mcleod. I think that I was the first person to put this on an FE and in a Cobra. I ended up using the cast iron BH that came on the engine because after trying to install the engine there is no F'n way that BH would fit in the car. The top edge was hitting 3" from the bottom of the firewall. The starter bump out is also elongated which would have to be completly ground off to clear the frame. I'll post some pics of the differences between the Mcleod and an FE bellhousing that I ended up using. I have been offered to send it up to the Kirkhams to see if they can make it fit in their mock frame setup. I have also yet to talk to Red from Mcleod about what to do next. I am very frustrated with their support as well. First you call & all they can tell you is that YOU have to modify it! Well that is an easy way out. I need to talk to him some more about this but I have the car running so that is on the back burner.
This is to let everybody know that the MCLEOD MODULAR BELLHOUSING DOES NOT FIT IN A COBRA
This is a pic of the firewall where the BH was hitting it.
