Could this be used to couple a slant to some industrial application? There's no hole for a clutch release fork.

It's got a high mounted starter and the bolt pattern doesn't look right. If it fits a slant maybe it a marine motor bell housing. Some of the marine setups ran the motor on its side. There is also the Clark Motor Home from the 60's that used a slant. Have your guys seen this?

Which bolt pattern doesn't look right? The trans side? Looks to me like it was meant to drive a hydraulic pump.

Most marine stuff was cast iron. Many marine bellhousings also had motor mount provisions.

I know about the Clark Cortez and saw that thread.

I bet it runs some kind of pump. It's not anything I ever seen before.

You know why it looks funny.....it's for a STANDRAD shift, not a standard shift.

That housing was on the Bag a couple months ago. I would guess it fits a pump or generator. :shock:

Generators usually support one end of the generator armature with the crankshaft and have a much more open end than this thing. This is true for my 1940s 1kW Wisconsin driven generator and the 750kW Cummins V12 driven gennys at work. I still think it's meant to drive a hydraulic pump. I asked the seller for casting numbers and if they had any idea what mounted to the bellhousing, but got no reply. I did just ask Saturday though.

I bet it is a pump bell, water pump that is....
a lot of slants were used to water fields.......
I don't see any place to put a clutch arm so it ether didn't have
a clutch or arm it was under the bell.
