So, I contacted Lakewood regarding the Bellhousing / Starter combo and they said this:
"Thank you for the inquiry about the Lakewood Bellhousing. The bell we think you have is Lakewood 15210. This is for the FE to the Tremec Trans. This bellhousing will not work with PRE 1965 Bendix starters. You will will use the starter that is for the FE engines. Not sure if you are being given the correct starters. Those units have been troublefree for some time. We have no documented issues coming from what you describe."
Based on this when I get the OEM replacement, I will tell them 1966, 427 FE version.
