Hi all I'd like to thank all of you for your recent interest in the Spitfires and assorted parts I've listed here in recent weeks. Two nights ago, I sold the entire collection. I think the Mk 3 is he

The GT6 bellhousing pattern is WAY different from a Spitfire. I haven't checked the bellhousing-to-tranny pattern because my GT6 (Rest In Pieces) came to me without benefit of tranny. Silly me -- I t
