Hey, thanks for the quick reply...........the pics are bad.........the hole where the bellhousing stud goes into is really chewed up bad........also the springs that hold the TOB are worn really bad, if i put a bearing in it, it bascially falls out with any kind of movement. Its not pretty. LOL

From what i understand the orginial part # was GM 9787069.........ive tried a few different forks from different sources.........not sure if you familar with some of them. Ames & Performance Years are mostly pontiac vendors......but the repo they sell is GM # 14066345.......which is bascially a 73-77 chevell/nova/monte carlo deal.

Im not a stickler about orginial parts, i"ll use a ford part if it fit right.........im just having a hard time figuring out why i can"t get this part........lakewood has something similar # 15500 i believe..........put it totally looks different than what i have...........im just wondering if its gonna work or not.

Now the Parts Place out of chicago, sells excately what i need, so i ordered one, you can"t barley get the TOB in it..........looks great, im not sure if the part can be repaired to work right.........and for $59 bucks, which isn"t that much money, i shouldn"t have to pay some another $100 bucks for their labor and not be able to fix it right.

Im just trying to find out if this is the same as a chevell part........probubly would be alot easier to find..........i think.

Give a pontiac boy a break and help .........

Thanks, Rich
