Hello, New to the site. Great Place for info!!
Sorry if this has been asked before, but would like to know if boring out the small block bellhousing with the small 4.35 opening for the bearing retainer to 4.80 will weaken the bolts that hold the fork in place. I have the small block bellhousing casting number 3515 734. It appears that if I bore it to 4.80 it will be very close to the bolt holes. If I can bore it then I will have the bearing retainer on the OD tranny shaved down to 4.80 and will match the housing. Thanks
