Is it possible to weld a new or different bellhousing on a transmission?
And if so how? |

Point one: inflammable = flammable. English doesn't make much sense there. The word you want is non-flammable. Point two: I believe the G50 uses an aluminum case. Point three: welding any casting out of any material is not for the faint hearted or those of less than stellar skills. On the "broken" G50s, are you saying the bellhousing is broken? If so, I wonder if a new bellhousing could be made up to adapt it do a 901/915 mount. Bellhousings can be bolted on , and don't have to be made out of a casting. Lots of work, but a G50 might be worth the effort for some conversions. |
