Do you think I hurt the transmission?
 
I was test driving the car and long story short, the slip yoke u joint must have lost the clip, losing the cap, causing the u joint to beat around the slip yoke. I was going about 15-20 mph preparing to make a turn onto my street. The bell housing is cracked. The bell housing was a cheap 621 repop that I bought a couple of years ago. Like the title says, did I hurt the tranny? It is a TKO 600. Car has about 33 miles on it. I removed the trans, installed a new bell housing, inspected and reinstalled the trans. The car shifts thru all the gears on jack stands. Do you think it is safe to continue shake down runs?

There is one way to find out, drive it.

Yeah, I guess I was afraid that if a tail shaft bearing was wiped, it might do more damage. Anymore thoughts?
