Good to hear from you, dicer. Look for some of the tools I'll build as I progress. First on the block is the holding fixture that will bolt to my engine stand, probably followed by the piston clamp. I'm a Rube Goldberg Jedi Master!

The install that concerns me the most is the input shaft teflon seals. I've read things about heating and cooling, duct tape, mylar and hose clamps. (Lions and tigers and bears, OH MY! ) This one might mean a trip to Vern's Transmissions, a local guy...

Thanks,
Bob
