Just got of the phone with Billy at McLeod, and he said that they just sent off a prototype lt1 bellhousing to be reproduced,yesterday. He said look for them around 6 months from now. They will be the same price as the old 8710-15, because it will replace the 8710-15. It will be a direct bolt in replacement, so No More Converting to ls1 push style.

183 days and counting

 

This is real good news as the options available in the past for LT-1s were not very good. I'm pleasantly suprised to see companies still have an interest in the LT-1!!! What was the approx. cost of the 8710-15?

 

My buddy just bought a 8710-00 (ls1) from Thunder for 425.00, the 8710-15 in Jegs is 442.00

Figure some where around there

 

I've been waiting a long time for someone to make a direct LT1 bolt-on of a SFI rated bellhousing. I will definitely buy one.

 

Finally i can stop searching for one.. I will defently purchase one if it's a direct bolt in like indicated.

 

me too!!!!!!!

 

I was just about to convert too. this is awesome. maybe my car will actually be running then

 

Has anyone heard about additional info on this item (LT1 / SFI bellhousing) ?

 

they have a forum on their site. you might want to post there and ask.

 

Mcleod has a couple of pictures posted of the prototype.

Looks great. Anyone going even remotley fast should have one.

 

Agreed...I wonder how much there going to be. Im guess around $700.00

 

Quicktime has one

 

I guess its not on there website yet?

 

I know who is getting the first prototype

 

Finally the LT1 crowd does not have to worry about missing legs/feet. I will be getting one as soon as they are test fit with long tubes. Great news
