Has anyone ran a Lenco behind an AMC motor? And if you did where did you get the bellhousing and who made it. Thanks pk

What input does the Lenco have?
If it has a ford you can use the old Lakewood bell as I am doing with a liberty. If you have to buy a bell Browell is the way to go..with a cross shaft for the throwout bearing. |

Did Bob Stieg used to run one at Byron Dragway long ago in a wicked AMX?

Looks like Browel will custom make anything for a guy. It is 1.375 10 spline. Input shaft can be made any length for about 200 bucks from Lenco. Just was looking to see if anyone knew of a company that may have one on shelf or a used one somewhere. This is going to be my first attempt at a drag car, hanging up leathers and selling Top Fuel bike if anyone on here is interested. Thanks Paul

Long input's are what most mainstream (chevy/ford) guys with big power are using to use a dual disc clutch. So if you have a long input you can use an amc bell. All I have to do to the ford input in my Liberty 5 speed is cut a little off the end of the pilot and use a pilot bearing that fits the ford input.

I was looking for an SFI certified bell housing for AMC motor to Lenco transmission. I found one, going with injected BBC instead of AMC motor until I get one.
