{"product_id":"lakewood-bellhousing-kit-chevrolet-small-block-and-big-block-engines-lk4000k","title":"Lakewood Bellhousing Kit - Chevrolet Small Block and Big Block Engines - LK4000K","description":"The Lakewood cast aluminum bellhousings connect Chevy small and big block engines to transmissions utilizing the standard GM pattern such as the Muncie, Saginaw, Borg Warner T10, and Tremec TKX or TKO transmissions. The bellhousings can be used on both GM cars and trucks and other manufacturers where swap applications are being installed. These kits come complete with a clutch fork boot, inspection cover, and Grade 8 mounting hardware that connects the bellhousing to both the engine and transmission.\n\nThe bellhousing (#LK4000), clutch fork boot (#50351), inspection cover (#50350), and mounting hardware kit (#50368) are also available individually and can be found below under Service Parts.\n\nFor a hydraulic-only version that fits these exact specs, see LK4200K. For the Gen III\/Gen IV LS and Gen V LT version of this kit, see LK5000K.\n\nOEM starters are recommended for ease of fitment.  It is very important that the tooth count (153 or 168) of the starter match the tooth count of the flywheel to ensure proper engagement. Two primary options: a 12 3\/4-inch flywheel (153 teeth) where the nose cone will have two attachment bolt holes across from each other (inline) and a 14-inch flywheel (168 teeth) where the attachment bolt holes will be offset (diagonal). This applies mainly to factory GM starters on passenger cars\/light trucks and does not apply to later model versions (w\/ gear reduction) or aftermarket and mini starters.  Be sure to match your clutch to your flywheel as well.\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight cast aluminum design similar to the original equipment bellhousings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLower cost non-SFI rated option if your project does not require the steel SFI rated unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned For Hydraulic and Mechanical Fork Throwout Bearing Linkage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBellhousing Depth: 6.45 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClutch Fork Opening: 2.125 In X 3.3 In\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransmission Bore Diameter: 4.684 In\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes Grade 8 Hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLK4000 Bellhousing also available separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits Tremec TKX, TKO, Muncie, Saginaw, and Borg Warner T10 Transmissions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClutch Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.5 IN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEngine:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chevrolet Small Block Gen I, GM Big Block\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEngine Make:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chevrolet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlywheel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 153 Tooth, 168 Tooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.300 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cast Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Transmission Bell Housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bellhousing Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSFI Approved:\u003c\/strong\u003e No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTransmission:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bert Racing, BorgWarner, Brinn Racing, Falcon, Jerico, Muncie, Richmond, Saginaw, T10, T5 GM, TKO 500\/600 GM, TKX GM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTransmission Bore Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.685 IN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTransmission Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Notes:\u003c\/h3\u003e\nTested with O.E.
