Looks like we need an 8 1/2"disc and pressure plate for a v8 60 with a recessed flywheel. Roger 805-238-3579

Well, I guess I'm in the right place, with the perfect crossover. Here's my 1948 Prefect, currently being retrofitted with a V8 60. I also own a completely stock 1952 Popular.

Bob C, thanks for the pics. Definitely not a match to the 6 cyl. So, best guess seems to be 49-51 Merc. Thanks all!

Sure looks like this. https://www.ebay.com/itm/394041264594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0

38 coupe, I can't tell dimensionally, but all the bolt holes and locating dowels on this bell look to line up identically to what is shown as 49-early51 Merc. The perimeter pattern is also identical. Wow, this ford stuff is complicated. All my GM stuff has casting/part numbers. Thank you all...

Bob C, does your bell take a full circle starter plate?

This neophyte would appreciate any help from you experts about the application of this bellhousing. Thank you sirs.

It appears that I need to drop the oil pan of this v860 in order to replace the flywheel. Is that correct?

and where to purcahse? Thanks.

Found, thank you Tim Harness and Ford Barn.

Need just one of the half-ball shaped covers. Hate to pull new wires thru a broken cover. Email with price please. Roger (zolldan@sbcglobal.net)
