 Car big bell housing on
left, truck big bell housing on the right
For V8 Chevrolet engines---------------------------since the VERY first
Chevy 265 V8 in 1955, there are TWO sizes of bell housings. There are
SEVERAL different bell housing configurations but there are ONLY TWO
sizes---big and small. Each must be matched to its respective
flywheel--again, big and small.
Starting with the first V8 in 1955, there was ONLY ONE flywheel/bell housing
size----big. The big flywheel is 14in diameter with 168 teeth. That 14in
flywheel will ONLY fit a BIG bell housing. In 1963, Chev introduced a
smaller, 13in, 153 teeth flywheel AS WELL AS a smaller bell housing. There
are SEVERAL small bell housings for the small flywheel. The 403 is the one
which is about as common as dirt------------------and is the cheapest to
buy--------------usually about $10-25 at swap meets. The 421 housing, which
is essentially identical to 403, is a 1963 ONLY housing. What makes the 1963
421 housing unique is the hole in the rear of the housing where the tranny
front bearing retainer fits. It is smaller than the hole in all other
housings (why in God's green earth Chevy did this in 63 is anyone's guess).
Another oddball small housing is the one for the 64-67 Chevelle with a V8.
It has the hole in the SIDE of the housing pointing down at an angle so that
the throw out bearing fork doesn't cause any interference. Even though all
of the above housings have a different configuration, they are still the
SMALL housing for the SMALL flywheel. ALL the small bell housings are the
full enclosure style. THE SMALL FLYWHEEL REQUIRES A STARTER THAT HAS A
STRAIGHT ACROSS BOLT PATTERN FOR ATTACHING THE STARTER TO THE BOTTOM OF THE
BLOCK.
The BIG flywheel (14in, 168 teeth) was first used beginning in 1955 on the
first Chevy V8. The BIG flywheel can ONLY be used with a BIG bell housing.
Over the years there have been several configurations of big bell housings,
but they will all work with the big flywheel. The 55-62 (used on some trucks
up to about 1970) bell housings were cast iron (except for 60-62 Vettes and
60-63 hi-perf 348 and 409 engines in cars which was alum) and they ALL had
an open bottom with a stamped sheet metal pan. Then, in 1963, the full
enclosure BIG aluminum housing was introduced. Again, there are several
configurations of big housings, but the MOST common and cheapest is the
3899621 (commonly referred to as the 621) housing. The 3872444 is nearly a
clone to the 621 and was mostly used on 66-67 Vettes with a BB, but some
66-7 Chevelle owners have reported original 444 housings on their SS396
cars. Later, there was a 464697 housing which is also a near clone to the
621 housing, plus it was also a service replacement for the 621. The 697 was
listed in the parts books under TWO different part numbers, depending on the
location of the hole for the ball stud for the throw out bearing fork. So,
for the full enclosure, alum bell housing, there are basically 3 choices:
3872444 (translate VERY$$$$$$$$$$$$), 3899621 which is fairly common but
prices are increasing for this one, and the 464697 which is not terribly
common-----but for a Chevelle, it will only work if it is the version that
has the hole for the ball stud in the "normal" position. VERY, VERY, VERY
few people on the planet can immediately spot the difference between these
three big bell housings because the diffferences (other than the casting
numbers) are so minor. So, either of the three will work perfectly.
Big bell housings require a starter with a CAST IRON, STAGGERED bolt pattern
for attaching the starter to the bottom of the block. Starters with an
aluminum nose and the staggered bolt pattern will ONLY fit an automatic
tranny. The starters for the 55-62 (up to 70 for some trucks) bell housings
bolted directly to the bell housing, not the block. BUT, if you use a later
block that has the threaded holes for mounting a block mounted starter, and
you use an early iron housing (for example, installing a later 350 in a 55
Chevy and using the 55 iron bell housing), you can use the later, block
mounted, iron nose, staggered bolt pattern starter instead of using the
original style starter that bolted to the bell housing.
Now, one last thing about big bell housings. The full enclosure aluminum
truck housing, 460486. This is a big housing, it fits a big flywheel, will
accept an 11in clutch, and a tranny (such as a Muncie) bolts up to it just
fine. BUT IF YOU USE ONE OF THESE TRUCK HOUSINGS YOU MUST HAVE AN ADAPTER
RING! The reason is because it has a bigger rear hole than the pass car
housings. This hole is what properly centers the tranny with the rear of the
crankshaft, NOT the four bolts that attach the tranny to the rear of the
bell housing!!!!
There are unscrupulous sellers at the swap meets that will sell one of these
truck housings to unsuspecting buyers, but these truck housings are VERY
easy to identify immediately from a car housing. See below for pictures. The
truck housing has an EXTRA bulge around the bottom of the housing, whereas
the car housings are just rounded (does that make sense).
Also, it is super easy to immediately identify the difference between a
small and a big housing WITHOUT looking for a casting number! On the SMALL
housings, both sides are straight and the bulge for the starter nose DOES
NOT protrude beyond the side of the housing. On the BIG housings, the bulge
for the starter nose protrudes approximately 1in beyond the side of the
housing---regardless of whether it is a 55 iron or a 90 aluminum housing or
a truck housing. ALL of the big housings have the starter nose bulge
sticking out about 1in.
12 3/4 diameter flywheel, 153 teeth, starter bolt holes straight across.
14" flywheel, 168 teeth, bolt holes offset.
