Pictures the Lakewood bell housing for 68/69
 
I’m looking for pictures of the correct Lakewood bell hosing that would have been used in 68/69
I have found lots of pictures of Lakewood bell housings
Just no vintage bell housing pictures

Here is a neat retrospective that the HAMB boys started recently on Scattershields:

Thanks for posting very good thread and warning about using vintage Scattershields.

I will weigh the risk carefully, if I ever find a original Lakewood bell housing for the 68/69 period.

This is me talking myself into a vintage Scattershield.
I do plan on running a explosion resistant clutch and flywheel.
The engine HP/TQ will not exceed 500/500.
I will have a talk with the local track tech and NHRA tech when they are here for the points meet.
Thanks Again
Bernhard

Top, left hand side is an early Lakewood. Look at the mounting area versus a current one.

Apparently I've been very fortunate so far. I'm going to look for several scattershields for my cars!

Here is some similar info but points out the detail of large vs. small clutch accommodation. i believe “large” applies to 11” clutches.
