Bellhousing runout '65 273

What I’m saying is there are times when you can’t correct these things because they are so far out. With what you have I send that thing is a New York second. I’ve seen OE bell housings out .060 and you correct what you can and send it.

Most scatter shields are out .035. Or more. You can only move them so far.

A manual trans input shaft and brg cocked .060" at the bell house spinning at 6k rpm can't be happy and run smooth (for a long time). The measurement would be higher by the time the brg see's it. Factory tolerances were not great and they said .008" so I'd try and get closer than that. I got my Quicktime to .002" total. That's close enough.
