Ford Bell Housing Alum Gilmer Type

The Ford Bell Housing Aluminum Gilmer Type from BERT TRANSMISSIONS is a reverse-mount bellhousing designed specifically for small-block Ford engine conversions that require gear-reduction starter systems. This product is ideal for custom engine swaps where space is limited or where traditional bellhousing configurations may conflict with the vehicle's frame or drivetrain layout.

Constructed from lightweight aluminum, this bellhousing is engineered to reduce overall engine bay weight compared to cast-iron alternatives. It includes a steel crank coupler and idler gear assembly, which are essential for the mechanical interface required by gear-reduction starter systems that deliver superior cranking torque at lower RPMs, making it particularly beneficial for high-compression or larger-displacement small-block conversions.

This assembly is perfect for racing and high-performance builds, where reducing engine friction is crucial. The Gilmer pulley drive system allows for efficient accessory belt drive, enhancing performance without the parasitic drag associated with traditional systems. This product is a complete installation package, ensuring that users have all necessary components for a seamless setup.
