Bob,

I am aware that chevy bellhousings are different. I did get a Pontiac bellhousing with the car but it wasn't pretty. I don't have any before pics, but here it is after refinished it. I sandblasted it first, then painted it with aluma-blast, then used Eastwoods satin clear on it. It actually turned out pretty good.

FTR: Leave the car the original color. You'll be much happier in the end and it's easier on your painter.

I also think you will find that the 3.55's will be plenty for a built 455. Traction will already be an issue and you'll easily be 3000 rpm on the freeway.
