Back when I had an early long bellhousing '51 Chrysler I bought an Offy
adapter plate that allow a Saginaw Chevy trans to bolt to the Chrysler It came
with a spud that you pressed into the crank where the pilot bearing would go
and stuck out the back containing the pilot bearing at the correct depth. I
still have one from Offy and one home made one. Even the top loader/Packard
deal required the bushing be moved back about 1/2 inch from where Packard had
it. But still in the crank. With a spacer I made and pictured in the BRN.

Doug... can't you just make a spacer to bring the Pilot bushing housing out
that much? Maybe something that bolts to the flywheel?
Hmmm Speedway sells a cool tool to check the depths of these things... but
once I saw it... I made my own a few years back... sorry I don't have
pictures... hmmm
