Re: [AMC-list] AMC V8 bellhousing patterns - confirmation?

[Davis <martin-davis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes from 1972 up the AMC 6 and 8 share the same bell pattern. And yes the raised # under the motor mount bracket is the CID. 1967 to 71 the deck height was lower on the v-8 and the bell on the 6 was different.
