Which is best to use?

1 piece or the 2 piece with the separate bellhousing?

For a small block chev.

Thankyou.

Two piece gives some versatility if you ever decide to sell it.

 

[jak]

Thanks.
Is the 1 piece stronger?

 

[BigMinz]

Thanks.
Is the 1 piece stronger?

Most likely not.

A one piece will be lighter then 2 pieces
An ATI 2 Piece case is lighter then the Reid one-piece case.
If you’re concerned about weight.

Strength? Really doesn’t matter in a misshapes anything will break.

Would you recommend using an ATI case?
Do you need a flexplate shield with the ATI bellhousing?

The Reid case is by far the nicest case on the market today. The fit and finish is the best you will ever see.

Agreed.

It's a very nice piece as well as their 400 case.

Has anyone had any experience with the BTE case yet? The new 2 piece design.

I wish every trans I built could be in a Reid case.

I wish every trans I built could be in a Reid case.

That would make life so much easier.

 

[RegalRocket]

I think 1 piece cases are the way to go. I don't buy parts based on reselling them.

2 piece saved me some money and hassle when this happened:
