Now what..... (more issues? I hope not!!)

Latest issue..  Put the newly machined plates to the tranny. Slid tranny into place. clearances for and aft look good between plates and bellhousing.. ready for welding together.

BUT...

First thing I notice is that the transmission "tailshaft" and transaxle "input "shaft arent straight, or in line in the vertical.. left to right is  perfectly in line.. BUT...top to bottom. tranny output is a bit higher than the transaxle input.. rear transaxle shaft pointed slightly upward, making a not so "in-line situation...not a lot, but enough to easily notice.

any of you ever see a misalingment of any noticable distance when fitting the tranny?   I can easily "tweak" this as need be, but I want as little sterss on the clutch disk/shaft when its done.

How far off (if any at all) were you all when you did your conversion? And if any at all, what is "too much"?
Will the two U-joints / assembly compensate for this misalingment OK?

I was thinking that perhaps raising the front of the engine a bit might compensate for this out of alignment.. Maybe the front motor mounts are worn where the front has dropped a tad?

Who knows..
