Upon closer inspection, it looks like I'm missing a rod myself (One of the short ones on the passenger side). I will have to keep an eye out for a replacement
Anywho, the passenger side long one didn't photo too well because of the pesky header and driveshaft in the way, but I'll show you what I have. My setup is a TH350/NP203 for reference. As far as the case's inclination to torque over it has 2 pretty stout mounts that go to that crossmember. I have a pretty stout 383 that would find the weakpoint in this design pretty quickly. I've had this truck for over 9 years and it's held up pretty well so far (knock on wood).
