Yes, crank was drilled, brass sleeve is in, the input shaft that I'm using does not have the 4".3 retainer on the end, so it hard to tell how far off it is
The brass sleeve is flush with face of crank, shaft does slide into and to end of crank
So that's all good
Will try the trans again, without clutch, but by looking at it, retainer on input shaft will hit the one side again on bell
Will get it sorted out when I dial it in




First thing you need to do is take that junk brass bushing out and throw it in the garbage! Go buy a roller type bearing that is used in the later magnum applications and put that into the snout that a convertor would sit in if your had an auto trans. Put bellhousing on, put clutch and pressure plate onto the trans. shaft while not bolting the pressure plate to the flywheel until you have the trans. all the way into the bell. If pressure plate won't bolt up then you have a problem.





So , how do you get the pressure plate and clutch disc into the bell housing after it's on the transmission and the bell housing is on the engine?..


it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead
