370/429 to SAE 3

[superkonr]

I have a bus with a Spicer trans that's SAE 3. It currently has a big old GMC V6 that's bad and I can't locate a replacement block. The flywheel housing that's on it has the big side mounts. Is there a flywheel housing with the same mounts that will mate a 370/429 Ford to an SAE 3 trans? Anyone have casting numbers that I can look up? Thanks!

Figured out that the big tandem Ford grain trucks in the early 80's had industrial 429s and eaton 13 speeds which are SAE pattern. So something does exist at least. Anyone have a picture or part number for that flywheel housing?

Dunno if it's a separate piece, as i found this complete bell, with side-mounts and a massive pattern for bolting on a trans

That one is close but that's the smaller (clark?) transmission pattern. I found 2 pictures of the correct adapter but both were sold and I can't see a part number (of course...)
