I don't have one, but I believe a common application would be a Clark 5-Speed.

I have a Clarke 5-speed in my 401M powered RM-7500; and with a 2 speed diff.
This is the first time I can recall ever seeing 'Clarke 5 speed' mentioned on the list.

Would the Bendtsen adapter work on the V12 to allow almost any Chevy tranny? What about the starter they offer as well? Would it be strong enough to turn the beast over? And the flywheel required w that set up?

I have 700R4 behind my V12 with the Bendtsen's adapter. The little high
torque starter has done just fine so far. I have about 16,000 miles with
out any problems what so ever. Bendtsen's has been sold and is now Bendtsen's speed gems. They are only about ten miles from me now in Wisconsin. They are a great group of guy's in the shop. If I can be any help
in working with them and you, let me know. That's how we get are dreams on the road...
