Tom did the bushing do the job on the plate.

It was shy by about .250 all the way around...easy fix...got a 2" piece of tubing that had a .250" wall.....sliced a .250" thick piece....welded it into the opening in my tranny plate. Mounted tranny, Put the EC bushing in place. Tacked it, removed tranny, Finish weld the bushing in place!!!!

As you can see the support that bushing provides would be hard to duplicate properly with shop hand tools.

I agree...and even if anyone does build their own TRANNY PLATE.....ORDER the Bushing from EC!!!

If they don't have the bearings do not add them ot it will not work. Its two different pinions. And the # you listred is for the input bearings not the thrust bearing under the pinion.

Is there any advantage to having the thrust bearing.

On the end of the vent tube do you use a check valve like the ones they use to vent the rear axle on a car or truck?

No need for that on a race vehicle. The reason they put item like that on passenger cars is all the years of use and weather they get subject to. On tis race tranny, you will perform routine maintenace such as chaging the oil and checking internal components (shift keys....). Per Georges recomendation, I run my vent line right over to the chain...anything that vents out of the tranny will aid in lubricating the chain!

Any problem switching around input shafts between short and long?  I have accumulated about 6 spare units, and some have longer and some shorter input shafts.
She got the goldmine, I got the shaft.
