The truck bell has the rear engine mount ears also. If you used the steel 49-50 car bell the rear mounts could be an easier mod than trying to wield on the cast truck bell to change the top bolt pattern. Not saying that wielding cast can`t be done just that steel would be easier?? And Ron`s adapter sounds very cool.
