That's exactly right. Your speculation about the bottom of that bellhousing being cut off is completely without evidence or support.

If there was a dead horse around here, I'd be kicking the poop out of it.

Rod, in Jason's defense, the 8010 that he's referencing is the bellhousing that got all of this started to begin with.

However, I will again state my opinion on this: unless someone can recreate the very incident that occured in a lab and they're able to nail it down to being 150% the bellhousing's fault, then all of this is pointless. When the bellhousing is basically undamaged and the mounting bosses are pulled out of the block, I find it hard to believe that it's the bell's fault...especially when we have testimony of a beloved Lakewood "failing" the same way.

All of this is pointless....including all of the "minions" that hop around from forum to forum warning everyone about that one incident of a Quicktime failure, on a dyno, where the bolts pulled out of the block.
