i didnt realise they made 4 spd bellhousings for turbo blocks i thought anything with a 4 spd had trimatic blocks i have a 308 from a vl commodore and it is trimatic pattern but it needs reco but i can get a really nice 308 but it is turbo pattern hope that makes sense

They are just a Chev to Aussie 3 or 4spd bellhousing. Keep your eyes on Ebay. Just get one to suit the clutch fork you will be using (push or pull).

the conversion for the bellhousing is around $900 from CRS.

Hi, I have played around with a bit of this in the past, there are a few traps to consider.
An hour or so is well spent on google seeing all the different, pedal, clutch, bearing carrier combos, released through hq to wb (late HZ).Including full rat trap, 1/2 rat trap, full cable, push pull forks and stuff.They can all be made work but just do a little home work.
I fitted a dellow housing in my HJ van recently, with a full cable clutch.(late HZ WB & put the wrong bearing carrier in)
The danger of having a little bit of knowledge & not alot.

cheers Vic
