JW Performance makes an Ultra Bell AMC bolt pattern for Th400.  It’s not cheap but seems to be the best bolt up option for a tight tunnel.    (After you cut off the original bell housing from the case.)

I saw those but didn’t want to spend 600.00 then still need a shield.  Looks to be about my only option though.

I run the JW bell on my AMX and use a SFI blanket on the body of the trans.
Lets go racing!

Anything special you had to do besides cutting off old bell housing?

Bolt the bell on before you install it on the trans, I had to clearance the inside a bit because the flexplate was hitting inside and check your torque converter end play I had to have approx. 7/16 spacers made to get the proper end play. You also need to use an aftermarket dipstick tube.
