I have used 4-5 of the Lakewood housings over the last 40+ years. Big, clunky, heavy and strong. They all require dial indicating to make the transmission shift smoothly and not kill the pilot/input bearing. But I have been happy with them. I have never had a clutch explosion but know I would be much safer with a Lakewood than the flimsy aluminum OE ones. Quick Time and Lakewood are the same company now, but make separate products. The Lakewood housings have been around over 40 years and they are always for sale used in good condition for $300.00-350.00 which fits my budget nicely. Quick Time and others are much more expensive, near $1000.00 or more new and few used ones ever show up for sale.
