Default T10 621 bell issues



So I scrapped the whole Novak custom bracket and decided to go with a hydraulic tob from speedway. Got everything measured and spacers in. My 5.3 is in place with the 621 bolted to it. Now I can’t get the t10 in-the tob barely fits through the bh hole by itself let alone trying to get it to fit while in place on the tranny.
Anyone know of another tob that would work?
Only thing I can think of is trying to install it with the bellhousing bolted to the tranny which doesn’t sound like fun.

Now that I think of it I could just have a shop make a custom line with a 90 if the way it is now would cause an issue.

The two fittings look like they might be able to be milled down to shorten, and 90 or 135 deg fittings used.

A trans and bell assy installation together isn't that bad, unless someone gets brilliant and goes for solid engine mounts.

Thanks for the feedback. Ordered a 90.
Its going in a C4 so kinda tight. My only option so I’ll have to make it work.
