Trans swap - bellhousing compatibility question.

[Russ.W.]

G'day all.

Currently have a 1967 C10, Saginaw 3 speed behind an Inline 6 250.

I plan on swapping out the trans for a NP440/MY6 A833 4 speed overdrive trans out of a early 80's truck - the trans I'm buying is the standard GM mount, and not the Chrysler/GM hybrid.

What I need to know is, can I use my current bellhousing from the 3 speed?

Reason I ask is, my truck is a factory right-hand drive truck, which means my clutch fork is on the right side. The bellhousing that comes with the A833 is from a LHD truck, so it's clutch fork is on the left.

Can I use my current bellhousing, or will I need to find another alternative (custom, etc)?


Thanks for your time.

Cheers,
Russ
