    As far as I understand, V6 Jeeps (with the exception of the 71s with the special cast one-piece bellhousing) used a standard GM belhousing with the cast iron adapter to the T86 and T14.

    So I *think* this will work but others may be more sure than I am. There are pictures of an original bellhousing in my '71 build thread here:
    The Ebay bellhousing appears to have the needed bolt pattern along with an additional one. It seems like it would work.

    Fireball,

    My Jeep is currently at MIT Drivetrain in El Cajon, CA getting worked on.
    It looks like the bellhousing you pointed me to on Ebay was just the ticket! The old bellhousing is a total mess, it's been cut, ground and welded on.
    Thank you so much!!! :bananatool:
