Default GM bell housing bolt pattern
Is it possible to swap bell housings instead of using an adapter plate to bolt a 700r4 to a Pontiac block?

Is this a trick question?

700 does not come apart like straight shift. Transmission case is mostly one piece. Would be nice if it did though.

Do a web search for Ultra-bell (i think is the name...).
They might have something to help you out.

Sink enough welding rod into a 700 bell housing, and anything is possible.

Maybe not so practical, though.

generally its either ignorance or maliciousness.
in this case its ignorance.


I honestly didn't know the bell housing wasn't bolted up.

Thanks for the replies.

There has never been a 700 behind a traditional BOP engine from the factory.

Adapters work fine, but do recommend a long set of dowels.
