I'm waiting on one of those to come through the local yard.

What's the deal with the gearing? I've heard 1st is worthless.

I've had all I can stands, and I can't stands no more.

I'm cutting them out of the block tomorrow. I've done all the obvious shit and they won't budge. It's a cracked block anyhow. Anyone need parts?

I think the worst latent effect from warming is disease survivability. There's less of a freeze to kill off bacteria and virii every year. Scary stuff. The big guns are just now coming out. If you think we don't give a shit about the environment, go to China and take a look around. Their economy is ...

It's part of doing an SBC swap. You pull the dowel pins out of the BA block and press them into the bellhousing adapter plate. The SBC dowels locate the adapter plate and the Adapter dowels locate the tranny. Make sense? I'm doing an 85 gt with an 88 rear cradle and a ZZ4. If things go my way I migh...

I'm 99% sure the tranny dowels are larger than the head dowels.

I assumed the parts were too obscure to find in a parts store. I'll give napa a try.

I tried to pull the old ones out with slide hammer, but I cant get a good hook on the back of the pin.

I know. Bullshit problem.

You don't happen to have a 'generic' source for bearing race shims do you?

The local Chrysler dealer has them but they sell them for around $4.00 each. I was hoping for an assortment of several dozen to keep myself stocked for awhile.

John, Seems everyone wants me to return the money and harness. They have no clue what the date is set between me and Bill, and it is none of their business. Even IF they want to do business with me, it is still not any of their business. Transactions are between 2 parties, not the whole internet. I...

Yeah, the spline is about 1 1/8th or so in diameter. There's some lateral play on mine that I don't like, but I guess there's not much I can do about it.

www.jdsperformance.com is where I get my Spec from. Around $275 shipped.

14 spline, 30MM.

After I saw your figures again, I went back out to the garage and double checked to make sure my clutch disc fit (Spec stage 3)

Damn that seems weak.
