Going to cut whats left of the bellhousing off and install a JW Ultra Bell housing, go through the rest of the trans and make it all good again. Hope to get it back in a week or two so I can get a couple more cruises out of her before the harsh reality of winter hits!
As Im sure already know that's a common problem with stock F bodys even with frame connectors. solid mounts on engine makes it worse. I would go with the poly on the engine and stock on trans to allow it to move a little with the body flex. Im betting it started to crack before you bought it seeing you haven't been racing with it...get her back on the road....she's to pretty to sit!! :wink:
