It's a numbers-matching case and I don't want to risk destroying it if I did something stupid or even accidental



whats the use of this car going to be ? if its out and being rebuilt , and you are concerned with hurting it then NOW is the time to get another case . the bolt in cam for the overrunning clutch (sprague) will only stop the case from stripping , it will not stop a total failure that can and will break the case into multiple pieces .



CDignition showed us a pic last year of his grenaded trans , the front drum came apart and the trans case broke into many pieces ..

running up my post count some more .
