    Default W58 conversion

    Hey guys.
    I'm trying to find info on the conversion and have searched but can't find any info on here.
    I've got the bell housing and box, but need to know the other parts i need.
    Also need to know the process of fitting it all together.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction? HELP!
    :sigh: all the info was on the old forum

    - Nite Parts in NZ (either direct or sold through )
    - Some Malaysian mob, previously brought in by Bill Sherwood. (I think I have one of these and I haven't had any issues in three years)
    - Castlemaine Rod Shop (I think)
    - Dellows (again, only ever heard bad things about them)
    - Some cuz in the Phillipines, details

    Castlemain rod shop don't make them anymore, spoke to them on the phone a month back. In fact they told me they had no records of them ever being made, but I know they did make them.

    Niteparts are definitely the ones to go for if you can get one, REALLY good bellhousing.
