Yeah, something like post #16.
But I am going with CO2 switches instead of manual levers now and only one overdrive to start unless I find some more money.

I posted a youtube video of the 32 spline swap on the Lenco, but the darn copyright police got me for the 30 year old transistor radio in my 2x4 garage recording with a 10 year old 640X480 AVI quality translated to moviemaker wmv, then uploaded to MP3 or 4 on youtube and they can still tell it was foreigner playing the background while i narrated. I am irritated by that. Warner Music Group might miss out on their 1/10000th of penny of revenue in case you guys want to copy that recording.

Cool Re: Assault&Battery Build Thread

Wow, so if you snooze you lose, look what came in the mail today, my final adapter piece.
This is my completed 1500HP Electric motor Five Speed Transmission with double overdrive. It is about six inches longer than doing the whole thing with six LENCO cases including a permanent overdrive and about $3000 cheaper and deeper overdrive this way. All fly by wire shifting. oh, neutral and reverse in there too so I never have to spin the motor backwards again, which means we can eliminate all switches in the motor circuit and the 45lb backup battery. The net only adds about 35 lbs to the car. The magnesium cases are surprising light.
