thats pretty much what i ended up doing but i swiped it out of another 350 i had laying around. you know you have to much crap when you completely forgot about a engine you have.

the broken thing i was looking for



and the piece i took out of the other engine, looks like someone else did that idea as its two adapters in one



this will probably work out better as this engine is going into a 50s truck and doubtful it would have worked well anyways. sorry for wasting time, found that fitting yesterday while messing around in the garage
