glad to hear someone finally managed to get a niteparts bellhousing. Let us know how it goes!

yeh I've read in other threads from a few months back that people were having trouble getting in contact with Niteparts or getting the bellhousings over here. I got the email address on the forums here and just emailed one of their guys named Brendan, he was an absolute champion about it, no qualms about sending over to Oz. I just put the money in their account, and he sent it over. It took a few weeks, he chased up the receipt number for me and a few days later it was here, Australia Post took their time sending me the pickup-slip as usual. The bellhousing looks almost factory, appears to be a very good cast and finish. I havent dummy fitted it yet but I'm confident it will fit, unlike an adaptor plate kit from a person on these forums.

I'll let you all know how it fits and with the bigger clutch etc. Smile

nice ride you got going there. Just a question how and what did you use to paint the engine rocker covers and cam covers? its so neat and well done

Thanks dude. Yeah I spend a fair bit of time spraying and prepping shit, its pretty easy to do aswell. The block I sprayed with black engine bay heat resistant paint, the heads are silver like that because they were cleaned by the head/engine builder, with the rocker covers I used the same engine bay heat paint, but it took alot of coats to get it right, in the pics they look awesome, but close up one of them is a bit fucked, I gave them 1 coat, but then got them cleaned in a steam parts washer at my mates workshop, and it cleaned most of the paint off plus all the crap inside them, but some residue must have been still on there because when I sprayed them again the paint bubbled a bit, i tried to fix it best I could, but yeh when you use this paint on metal make sure the surface is 100% clean and dry and dont rush it.
