My car is proof of that.

They have always had the same Bellhousing bolt pattern, but as stated earlier, the cranks and flywheels are different, plus the clutch is different too, but you want to know the magical thing? The transmission input shaft has the same spline pattern as most of the older transmissions, like the Muncies and the T-10s, pretty cool huh

I have a t56 on my '76 2 pc rear main 383. I had to get a custom flywheel since i had a 2 pc rear main and 400 crank. Fidanza makes one, mine is centerforce. Nice piece but pricey!

so the T56 you have work on your 383 because I am doing same thing on my car I didn’t know if I had to change the bell housing and I guess you had to change the flywheel because you have a 2 piece rear main. Did you had to change you clutch system as well
