| RE: 428 cj bellhousing |

You need a bellhousing for the 11.5" clutch, Rudy. That may be from a 390GT, 427, or 428. It's a pretty common housing and very easy to find all the time on ePay.
The clutch fork pivot is different between the '67 and earlier and the '68 and later housings. The most common casting number for this housing is C6OA-6394-D. The date code determines whether it's '67 and earlier or '68 and later. But the pivot can be changed. You'll also need the C8OA-7515-D fork for the 1 3/8 input late-style pivot.
There is more than one housing that will work for your application. You can research the various housings here: http://www.davidkeetoploaders.com/bellhousingidchart.htm
Also, beware of the folks selling truck housings (a T in the casting number). These housings are 3/8" deeper than car housings and will work only with a smallblock input shaft with the longer pilot. Regardless of the particular casting number, the housing will have a prominent "hump" in the 12 o-clock postion. This hump clearly identifies the housing for the 11.5" clutch. |
