I have a 66 mustang that has I6 in it and im going over to a 289 out of a 64 galaxy. The problem with it is that my bell houseing will not bolt up to the 289 out of the galaxy, anyone know where i could find a bell houseing to fit my C4 trans and my 289.

Thanks

You're trying to fot a 6 bolt bell on a 5 bolt block. I smell a long ebay hunt in your future for a 5 bolt bell.

If at all possible get rid of the 64 289 and buy a 65 or later 289/302 that has the six bolt torque converter cover. They're stronger and a torque converter cover should be much easier to find for one. If you have to stay with the 64 then some junkyards that have older cars in them may be the best way to find the torque converter cover.
