I guess it depends on which model of TKO you get. I'm using a Ford Motorsports safety bellhousing (M-6372C) and TKO 600 (M-7003-R58C). No spacer needed.

Same combo as You with a Lakewood BlowProof & a spacer, I let the TKO guys send me the correct spacer.

I have a SB stroker with a TKO600. Read my post in this thread for what I put between them. (No spacer was needed, btw.)
Just Received #390

Guys, you can also use a Quicktime bellhousing. They don't require a short input shaft or a spacer. They also are SFI approved and only weigh 20lbs. I'm a distributor, let me know if you have any questions.

aluminum block is in
about the end of 1st page and start of second are two clutch choices, if i was to do it again i would go with mac vbach's recommended setup. with either of these clutches you can use a lightweight aluminum bellhousing, i wouldn't recommend either of these clutch setups or bellhousing if you are doing drag strip time.

Was your engine builder trying to sell you a transmission that he had? If that's the case, he might have a transmission for a GM application.
The input shaft on the GM spec TKOs is 6.60" inches from the front side of the main case to the end of the shaft. On the Ford applications, the shaft is 6.0" from the front of the case to the end of the shaft, thus you would need a spacer to keep the input shaft on the GM transmission from bottoming out in the crankshaft.
Just a thought...

Thanks
Thanks for all your input. I'm planning on using a quicktime housing. Sounds like that is a prefered setup.

Hey Cal,
Shoot me an email or PM with what you need. I sell Q/T bells, along with Tremecs and I give great discounts to CC members.
