I have a couple old Ansen cast iron scattershield bellhousings listed on EBay. One has the mounting wings for 55-62 Corvette and fullsize Chevy cars. The other does not have the tabs. I also have one lower cover listed and the Ansen lettered bolts that hold the lower and upper portions together. Each auction starts at $9.99 and has no reserve. Links to the listings can be found below.

Thanks and good luck,

Jason

Jason,

Just an FYI, those old scatter shields are made out of cast <span style="text-decoration: underline">steel</span>, not cast iron. Big strength difference.

One other thing, the 56-62 Corvettes <span style="text-decoration: underline">did not</span> need the mounting points on the bellhousing like the 55, 56 and 57 passenger cars. They picked up the back mounting point at the rear of the transmission instead. You might think that would be a long span, since the front mount was attached to the block using the water pump bolts, but that's how they were mounted.
