    Are you sure it's a standard transmission bell housing? The hydramatics of that time had a detatchable bell that might be mistaken for one for a manual transmission. If it is a manual housing, it will work with transmissions from '37-'53 Cadillac, '37-'40 LaSalle, and '50 Oldsmobile V8 cars. With the '37 floor shift transmission, a hole would have to be drilled in it for the sliding shaft that comes out the front of the passenger side front.

    If it's a cast iron factory bell, it will fit the transmissions I listed in my previous post.
