I'll haul it off for a small fee Frank. ;^) Seriously, anytime someone
does as much work as you've done to a car, there will be problems.
Attack them one at a time. 

1. Sounds like the electrical problem could be related to each other.
Probably a bad ground.

2. Check with Bill Perry at rivergate@compuserve.com about the
driveshaft problem. You can count on his support.

3. I only use Castrol GTLMA in my Midget. It's works for me.

4. My 5 speed seems to be nicely spaced. Are you running something
higher than a 3.9 rear end?

Hang in there, and don't give up. But if you do, I have a trailer and
tow vehicle at the ready!
