No such thing as a steel bellhousing for a small block. There's cast iron and aluminum.

I have a Lakewood STEEL blowproof bellhousing on my 1968 Valiant behind a 340. It fits pretty well and required no major mods. One thing is you can see the car doesn't have an OEM bellhousing from a mile away, the lower portion is pretty visible.

Lakewood (if you can find one) or Quicktime (if you can afford it). Search this forum. Based on some posts, they are not a direct bolt on and go.

I would say anything above 350 hp if it is going to be raced. As mentioned the lakewood is not just a simple install most have to be alighned by using off set dowel pins.

what is the part number on the bell housing? there are a couple different size clutches and the bell will make a difference on which clutch you use? difference could be as much as 25%.
Here is a quick time bell housing for small block. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/qti-rm-6070 I think that all small blocks use a 10.5 inch clutch 131 tooth flywheel. Big blocks use 11 inch clutch 143 tooth flywheel.
