sorry for the delay, this is the best pic i can get with my fone, i ran out of room.
had a lil problem with the inch worm tcase, the input spline adapter was too small by .001 of an inch, so had to get a 5 speed cressida slip yoke, cut the thing apart n machine it up to get the thing to fit, tcase in tomorrow, i got drunk, sunburnt n a lil tried.
