Just pick up a pair from Summit. I was going to pick a set out but figure I'll give you the choice: Summit Racing dowel pin selection

Thanks for the links. Summit Racing dowel pin selection

Now I can assign a Lakewood Bellhousing to each of the 4 blocks I have:
Production 455 block, 9.5" short deck block, 10.240" aluminum block, and
11.000" cast iron tall deck block.

I was going to sell the other bellhousings but will now "paint code" a block and bellhousing combination. Great link. Thank You lust4speed.
