  1. Happy 46R's post in HELP Removing Bell Housing (Clutch Cover) from 49 Plymouth P17 was marked as the answer   
    It is hard to tell from your photo but on my Dodge the clutch inspection cover can be removed with the engine and bell housing connected and in place. (Inspection cover is rounded on the bottom and about 6" wide/ I think there are 4 bolts holding it in place)This will expose the ring gear / flywheel which can be rotated by hand once the spark plugs are removed to reduce compression in the engine. Rotating the ring gear allows you to access the bolts holding the clutch pressure plate in place and this allows it and the disc to be lowered out of the bell housing. Putting it back requires an alignment tool to set the splines in place to allow the transmission to slide back into place. The suburban configuration may be different but this is what has worked on the three vehicles I have owned. The clutch assembly does have considerable weight to it when you are laying on your back under the car so be careful. Jope this helps.

    I recently installed a tach in my 230 ci 102 hp 46 Dodge coupe. Using a GPS app on my phone I can do 90 KMH at 2750 rpm. At 3000 rpm she touches 105 KMH and this is with a standard 3 spd transmission and no overdrive. Sorry I don't have the gear ratio for you.  Dave
