Can someone please tell me what the correct depth should be on the crank hole? I've read here that the automatics had one depth and the mannuals had another but I don't know what the depths are. For comparrison sake what would be the depth for the auto? Thanks Dave

Put the bell on the engine and measure from the transmission mount face to the bottom of the hole Then measure from the end of the shaft to the transmission mounting face. Be sure you leave a little "fudge" room 'S how we did it then. 'S how we do it now. No lasers, no levels, no transits, computers or digital readouts
