In that case, all I can say is good luck and I hope you have a second mortgage available! Just kidding but for the bell housing, just take a look in the parts book (Factory Parts List) as there are very few if any differences between them from the very early ‘40s up to 1954. Although it would look a little different, I even tried a 1940 110 bell housing on a ‘50s 327 and was surprised that it fit. The parts book will indicate direct replacements but a direct replacement isn’t always necessary. Personally I would rebuild the Ultramatic but it’s not my car.
