Default Quicktime Bell housing

I did a search and haven't found too much on this. Has anyone installed this bell housing? Just curious if it was easier to install than everything I've been reading about the McCleod??

Seems to be SFI rated but not positive as the website says "Passed SFI testing"

Thanks

Damn. Wish I would have known about this bellhousing a month ago. I've had a bitch of a time getting my McLeod bolted up. Initially it was hitting my driver side cat. So I bought and off-road y pipe. Just bolted that up last night and the bell still hits that. So, this morning I took the bell to a shop and had them grind some of that edge off. Hopefully it'll fit now. I'll find out after I get home from work tonight. I'm tired of dealing with this damn thing.

put a quicktime in a vette. def a nice peice. had to grind a little to clear the Kooks long tubes but other wise a lot easier than mcleod.

but on another note any SFI bellhousing is better than factory IMO
