    Both the Chevy and BOPC ( Buick, Olds, Pontiac, Caddy ) transmissions were 6 bolt housings for most of their production life. The original Chevy housing was 7 bolt and that's why their trans housings have a peak. In fact, most Chevy blocks were manufactured with the top center bolt hole drilled and tapped long after Chevy had changed to a 6 bolt housing.

    So how do you tell the difference between the common as dirt Chevy pattern and the far more desirable ( to us ) BOPC housing? 1. Well, the first and most commonly stated visual reference is the Chevy peak versus the BOPC saddle at the top of the bell housing.

    Here's a picture of the Chevy ( L ) and BOPC ( R ) pattern bells:
