I think I still have one of those adapters if you want it.

Is the 2.8l really what I want?

So this is usable? It would be nice if SOME parts from the old 2.8L could be reused.

Yeah if you bring the flywheel somewhere that balances stuff they can neutral balance it which is no different than just buying a new neutral balanced one... Just quite possibly way cheaper.

Is there a slicker bellhousing that could be used, or should I just pick up one of those dual-pockets & shave off the external mount, as Caffeine did.
What about this Camaro bellhousing? http://www.ebay.com/itm/380901977849...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

So what do you think about this? It has no wear on the teeth, just the rust issues and that cast weight. I can throw the thing in the glassbead cabinet and clean up this side
