Todd:
You are sooo right. I did have it backwards. J-type in a early
frame is messy, A-Type in an later frame is OK. Yeah, that's it. Whew. I
think I will go take a nap now.
As for cutting down the input shaft, they are hardened so they
cannot be machined (or so I have been told). I suppose it could be
annealed, then machined, then re-hardened? I am out of my element
now.... Is there a machinist out there who can comment on this? Kai?
Anybody?
Thanks,
Vance

Yeah, I kinda figured the longer input shaft might be
an issue with short back crank...wonder if they can
simply be "cut down"?
Oh and you have the A-Type in a late car
backwards...it gets tricky when you do a J-Type on an
early frame. The A-Type bolts up just like a 4-speed
does...early or late
Cheers,
Todd
