Downey bering cover

[Plowboy]

I need to find one of the OLD (1980's) chev V-8 conversion Downey bearing covers for a 4 spd trans. The throwout bearing shaft is machined down to fit a Chev throwout bearing. No longer available from Downey. Sheesh, it only been 25 yrs. One laying around in the someday I'll need that pile?

i read somewhere that you can take the toyota one off your 4 speed and having it turned down . at a machine shop . someone must be able to do it . if you still have the origional 4sp one

I just bought a stock used one from Spector. I will probably have it turned down at a machine shop. Was just hoping to find one already done. When I get the rest of the retainer off the 4spd case, I'll post a pic of the pieces. Throwout bearing froze, bent a plate lever and snapped the collar out of the retainer. The other option is to update to an aftermarket bellhouse that uses the stock toyota stuff. but that is over $400 dollars, since I don't have the toyota stuff any longer. Converted to V-8, 27 yrs ago.
