Found this on the HAMB, thought some might like a different idea.

Used a 62' bell housing that came with the 292 out of a 62' truck, just had to open up the main hole 1/4" for the input shaft on the T-5 transmission and relocate the top two holes for it to fit. The two bottom holes fit perfectly. I used a new clutch, pressure plate, and throw out bearing for a '68 390ci Torino. It bolted right up to the Y block flywheel

Perfect timing for me! I'm building my streetrod with a y block and just made the mounts for my truck bell housing looks really good. What did you make the top mounts from?

I saw that build on the HAMB, and it's nice work. I've got Mummert's version of that bell in my 32. Here's the link to his page.
