My bellhousing does have a center hole slightly larger than the typical gm ones. Mine is 5 1/8. I was planning on welding an insert in it to make it fit my 4.85" trans. bearing retainer. I assumed that regardless of the center hole, the bearing would still be centered. After all, the middle is still the middle.
I guess not though.
It's such a pain finder a bell with the right size center hole for less than 150 bucks.
no you are right about the hole in the middle, if the bellhousen is wrong then the location of the pivot ball would be wrong. it sounds like your folk it to short. are you sure it will bolt to the motor?
