Does a steel bell housing reduce ground clearance?
I am trying to decide between an aluminum bell housing and a steel safety one. My concerns are that I heard the ground clearance is reduced with a steel housing. How much? Can some of the housing be ground down to gain some room back? I also am concerned about getting the alignment correct with the steel housing. I will have 430HP and 450ft-lbs of torque and I will not be racing. Should I simply go with the aluminum bell houising or go with the steel and deal with the reduced ground clearance, complex instalation and increased cost but be safe?
