Anyone recognize this Chevy transmission adapter?

(1/2) > >>

EDNY:
This adapter was on a 348 engine I bought years ago...have an idea of what trans bolts to it?

sammons:
So many choises. Almost resembles a Big block mopar 727 or FE Ford C6. Really hard to guess without bolt patern templates.

EDNY:
Don't know the history of that 348 engine..could have been in a truck. Maybe GM put a specific trans behind that engine in the 60"s?

sammons:
Ed  my Uncle bought an old '63 Chevy Cement mixer truck. He bought it for the 409, 2 4bbl carbs, twin screw. It had a adapter looking cast iron thing on it. I asked my uncle why did it need that, he said to reclock the starter for the large 13" clutch flywheel.
