Always a great moment of anticipation and excitement before insertion. You don't want to be off or you could bend or even break your shaft trying to force it at the wrong angle.

I was waiting for a replay of the TV show with Boyd Coddington's shop when a couple of his boneheads were hammering on the trans and jamming it in and doing all manor of destructive maneuvers... I haven't watched TV since I shot them both on screen...

But then I snapped out of my delirium and realized that this was a PROFESSIONAL installation!

Funny - just sent you a couple PM's about this very thing. I'm sure you already have something up your sleeve lol.

Also a note sent about the steam tube plumbing - if not done already, it's a good time to plan that one too with the intake/TB out of the way but still with a mock-up or two to go and while you have easy access to the WP.

Clear loom! Why didn't I think of that? Call you tomorrow G!

Heck I'd be stoked if I could get all my parts in the same State.
Soon enough Rob, we'll have two sets of eyes on your project

Default Just a little bit closer!

Once the wiring is done, you are all but home free.
