Default TH400 Bellhousing, UltraBell question

What are you guys doing when you run an UltraBell on a TH400 to cover up the lower portion. I didn't realize that it's wide open. I'd like to find something that covers up the torque converter.

Nothing, it is just open. Keeps the converter cool.

Deer, ha ha...

Looks like you'll be keeping it open, unless you can find something off a stock car that had a 400T.

Stay off dirt roads, and you'll be ok..

They do make dust covers for them. Its just a piece of plastic that is there. Jegs and summit should have them.

A buddy of mine bought the plastic cover, and drilled 4 1" holes in it. It protects from big crap getting in there....roadkill raccons, skunks, dogs etc. Plus it will help the converter stay cool.
