Yes, I've installed this bell housing on my car in my garage. It's no easy task but it can be done. I had the car raised on 4 standard jack stands (6 ton jack stands). Had to drop the rear subframe + transmission. Make sure everything is unhooked (brake lines, all wiring) drop the transmission and you'll be able to get to the bell housing. It sucks because I didn't have much room down there since this was on jack stands and not on a professional lift, but it can be done.

THANK YOU MooMan. I had my clutch disk shatter and its a scary loud noise. Decided to install a blowbell when replacing my clutch, but was'nt sure if the motor had to be removed in order to install a blowbell. Just ordered it now thanks to your info

Make sure you grind the holes for the slave lines correctly. They are not cut correctly from QT. If you have headers, You will have to clearance for that. It will also hang down lower than factory, So you may need to adjust for that. Search as there are plenty of pictures showing all that I mentioned.

Thank You gotjuice? Could you please direct me to these pictures/info? I tried searching but turned up empty, therefore my post. I can't seem to find anything involving this install.
