Has anyone tried the Quicktime bell housing below?

I'm looking for a bolt in application, for my 68 AMX 390 with AMC version BW T-10.  Is that what this is for?

Thanks...

Rich C.

Rich, this doesn't help much but the "Specs" indicate 290 to 401 application. Maybe a quick call to them will answer your questions. Their contact info is at the end of the installation sheets.

I was told the depth of the 8069 is 8.023", which should be correct for the AMC T-10.

I installed this Quicktime bell housing on the 401 going into my 66 American.  bolted right up as did the T10 trans and starter. As I recall the bolt holes for the T10 were not bottom tapped, and I wanted more threads holding, so I bottom tapped the four holes.  I'm using a Mcleod hydraulic throw out bearing so I don't know how the clutch fork/ball works with it.  I did run into one problem, the Quicktime lip blocked the drain plug in the Canton oil pan so I had to machine a semi-circle out to provide access.
