GM BELLHOUSING FOR USE WITH
NV4500 TRANSMISSION
SPECIAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The NV4500 bellhousing that is available from General Motors has a hydraulic release bearing located on the passenger
side of the vehicle. This makes the bellhousing incompatible with 4WD vehicles that have the front driveshaft on the
passenger side. In order to install these new transmissions in older Chevy trucks, Jeep vehicles, and Toyota Land
Cruisers, we have manufactured this new aluminum bellhousing. The indexing bore in the bellhousing is 5.125" and the
four (4) tapped bolt holes are 7/16"-14.
DUST COVER INSTALLATION
The dust cover that we have furnished with this kit will fit all Chevy engines up to 1986. If your engine is 1986 or newer
and used the large rear main seal, you will need to modify the inside diameter of the steel sheet metal plate to allow for
clearance around the rear main seal area.
NOTE:
We have found that when using the zoom brand clutch assembly and other "High Hat" style clutch assemblies, we have
encountered interference with the clutch arm. The only modification for zoom clutches would be to reduce the thickness
of the flywheel. These style clutch pressure plates are not recommended for use with this bellhousing.
SPECIAL PILOT BEARING NOTE:
Due to variations in both the transmission input shaft length and bellhousing depth, it will be the customer's responsibility
to verify pilot bearing engagement from the new transmission input shaft tip. It may be necessary on some installations
to leave the pilot bearing extending approximately 3/16" from the crank location.
NOTE: The throw out arm boot provided in this bellhousing kit was designed for a Jeep throw out arm. The arm provided
in this kit is a Chevrolet arm. The boot may need to be modified for the correct arm location in the boot.
Most 1997 & up GM 4.3L V6
engines had a larger crank I.D.
