found this bell on e-bay it came off of a 351C just wandering if it will work on a 289? e-bay #: 150078166431 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BELL-HOUSING-OUT-OF-A-1987-FORD-F350-FITS-7-3-OR-6-9_W0QQitemZ150078166431QQihZ005QQcategoryZ33733QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
What tranny are you using? What year is the 289? (Looking to see if it is a 5 or 6 bolt bell, big difference.) If the 289 block in question is a 6 bolt bell pattern, you have many options for a bell. It can come off of: 289 6 bolt block 302 351w 351c 255 That covers the block side. You also MUST make sure it fits the tranny you are using. Only use a part that came from a car. Truck bells varied widely over the years and some of the differences are very small to see, but big enough to damage parts. So even if a truck bell looks like it works for your combo, steer clear. It may, but is it worth the trouble? Dave
