Randy Mitchell - Marseilles, IL
The Art Silva kit included a cast aluminum bell housing, fabricated steel struts that bolted solidly to the block and to stock Corvair engine mounts located at each frame rail; reverse rotation cam and distributor drive gear; reverse rotation alternator drive /pulley (fan blades “backwards”), reverse rotation starter motor, aluminum alternator mounting plate and two double edge fan belts. There is a whole list of non-kit parts that were required, such as 215 flywheel and Chevy V-8 clutch, etc.
It looks like my car has a KEP bellhousing. I attached a couple of pictures of the bellhousing as well as the V8 installation overall. The car is in "as purchased" condition - I bought it 5 years ago and it has been parked in my building ever since. California rust-free car, still complete, currently in dry storage awaiting Round II restoration.
