I broke a case like that once. I was 18 and flying along manually shifting my moms fury and went from 2nd straight into reverse at about 50 mph, we drove the car like that for another year or so. I didn't know it was broke till I decided to take the trans apart after parting the car to see what the inside of an automatic trans looked like and when I flipped the case upside down the rear race, and part of the case, fell out onto the bench ... Those bolt in sprags like you have there are only good for one thing , fixing a case where the outer race won't stay it , other than that complete waste of money because it won't stop what happened there the sprag rolling over.
running up my post count some more .

Actually the biggest benefit of a bolt in ORC is to keep the cam tight in the case and keep the ramps, rollers and race parallel to the axis of the unit. Another reason why the 904/998/999 units fail the orc much less, the cams are all riveted in.

I like Uncle Tony. I have to sigh when I see certain things. I don't know who placed the steel tools on the beautiful red paint on that Cobra kit car but I bet it was Tony. Hess not accustomed to working on beautifully painted cars. His flicking his cigarette but on to the ground made me sigh too. But he has fantastic knowledge that's easy to dismiss because of his appearance. His early videos on low budget engine/car setups and their proven unreliability- while good hearted miss the mark with most viewers.
Keep old mopars alive.

U I like Uncle Tony. I have to sigh when I see certain things. I don't know who placed the steel tools on the beautiful red paint on that Cobra kit car but I bet it was Tony. Hess not accustomed to working on beautifully painted cars. His flicking his cigarette but on to the ground made me sigh too. But he has fantastic knowledge that's easy to dismiss because of his appearance. His early videos on low budget engine/car setups and their proven unreliability- while good hearted miss the mark with most viewers. Just watch an episode of Bad Chad on YouTube. His metalworking makes blacksmithing look hi tech. No offense to blacksmiths. Uncle Tony is Formula 1 by comparison. Kevin

Billet front drum is a must , and an A+A SUPER Sprag , it has more rollers and can't easily be rolled over , if at all. Awesome, thanks. I need to start ordering parts. I assume the higher the rpm that it lets go in 1st gear, the worse the shrapnel is! Also agree, there is no way that was staged. And, at least Tony offered to help him rebuild his spare or use a trans he had in the shop. Makes me happy with my choice of automatic...

 I always get a kick out of that pic. And totally makes me miss the V-gate I had in the Charger!

That thing looks like it was made to remove fingers, love my pushbuttons.
