That is a great looking tool. I may have to borrow it as well in the future. I may have an issue that needs some investigation.

Bell housing alignment tool

Don,
I would like to borrow your alignment tool if possible. Since I have the tranny and everything out of the car for flywheel/clutch disc issues, now would be a great time to do alignment while waiting for parts.
Thanks!

Any chance of using the alignment tool ? I am assembling my short block and figure this is the best time to line up the bellhousing.

I realize this thread had cooled off over the past 6 years, but is this tool still available for loan?

Thanks,

What's the purpose of aligning the bell housing? Is it something necessary for a regular street car?

I believe a lot of the of the aftermarket 5 and 6 speed manual transmissions require aligning the bell housing. I also believe the more correct term is bellhousing runout alignment.
