I think small block Chevy, big block Chevy(all 1970s or older) and 348/409 are the same for a Lakewood but not 100 % sure.
I would get one with the block plate and the scattershield

You're right,Paul,that one will work.The block bolt pattern is the same for all three of those engines from 55-end of production.

I have seen a QuickTime bell housing that had a clutch explosion, it didn't fare very well. :drop

Which ever one you choose remember to index it to center it up. I am using a Lakewood bellhousing with a factory fork in my 62 and it works well. I have heard that the quick time bellhousing centers up easier due to better tolerances vs the Lakewood but I don’t know if there is any truth to that or just internet myth.

From what I gather watching both videos from both Lakewood and QuickTime they’re both owned by the same company now and basically manufactured just about the same with the exact same tolerances on centerline and on dowel holes.....And now that they’re produced by the same company they say the Lakewood has lost 12 pounds
