    I looked into it and an N54 is a little different. Looks like it uses 2 extra bellhousing bolts and the starter is mounted to the block so I would need to figure out a slightly different flexplate and crank adapter. I am entirely willing to do it. If anyone is interested please send me a PM. I would just need to source and n54 block and crank.

    Perry,

    Would you be able to bolt the adapter plate backwards onto a ZF bellhousing to show the difference in size of the Chev bellhousing.

    I was just under my car looking at my current wastegate routing, and it occurred to me that I might have pipe in a location that this adapter plate might need to occupy....

    Sorry don't have one. Does this help? Note that the steel plate overhangs the adapter by about 1/4". The adapter is close to the same radius of a stock bell.

    I suspect most installs will want to trim the starter boss off the bellhousing for exhaust clearance, its not needed anymore. There is plenty of meat on the plate to trim as well if needed. After some people do some installs I may design some more clearance on that side for Version 2.0 if needed.

    Thanks Perry

    It will probably depend on the application, but that area is definitely a concern....possibly even for the downpipe.

    No the crank adapter has the correct pilot diameter for the torque converter.

    Sandor sent me this pic on the book of face. Not sure if he messaged anything though.

    Figures that dude would be getting work done way faster than the rest of us... Looks like a BOP bellhousing on that trans, doesn't it?

    yea it is. but only difference is that extra bolt hole. i have both a GM super bell and the trans still has the stock bell on it currently. still wonder if the stock bell is larger thant he after market bells.

    I was figuring the factory bellhousing would be a bit slimmer since the aftermarket ones seem like they're thicker to contain exploding converters or something, but I'll be interested to learn what you find out about it.

    well just looking at these pics you can see the aftermarket bell isnt as round as the stock.. a lot more space between the mounting holes and the actual casing.
