Does anyone have the layout for the Honda/Acura J series V6 bellhousing bolts? Engines like the J30A, J32A and J35A? A CAD drawing or a pic similar to the info provided in the GM V6 thread would be very helpful.

They do not build to the particular trans I want to use. Sure would make things easier but costlier. Yes they do make very nice products, I have used several in the past myself.

Find a yard with the trans available and pulled. Take a large piece of stiff cardboard and rub your thumb over the bolt holes. This should give you a close enough idea if there is enough clearance between fasteners to work with the adapter you want to make.

I only have older gm patterns.

There is a pull it yourself yard not too far from me so it looks like a trip to look at junk.... ;-) Like you said, this would be close enough for the basic layout.
Thanks

I was able to get a rubbing off the back of a J30A1. If the bellhousing is the same as the J32A or the J35A series then Im good to go.
