Anyone have a dual-pattern bell?

I.e, a lakewood scatter shield? LIke the one I attached. If so, could someone get a measurement for me between the two patterns? I'm looking for the bolt hole measurement, center to center, from the straight up vs rotated pattern.

I need to drill out a single pattern steel scattershield.

Sorry; only '83 F T5 and T56 stuff here Joe.

Does this mean you're gonna change bellhousings we've had so much fun discussing in the past?

No, I just need to drill mine out for the rotated pattern. (T5 in a 2nd gen).

From what I can tell, it looks like they just drill it and weld nuts on the inside. I'm running the lakewood.

The F body T5 is rotated 17 degrees so you can simply use that to rotate the holes and mark them for new ones.
