didja get the almost-flat pulley too?

it does.  the only common '60s i6 bell has the t96/t14 pattern, and
there are t14 and multipattern late bells.

iirc in '65 232s only had autos, but t96 was std '66-7 and t14 '68-9.
also - you may think you're happy with your t96, but if you do much
stop-and-go, once you put a t14 in you'll wonder what took you so
long...

no reason you couldn't have a 232 and 5sp!
