Tranny is being weird, crutching it to Jack's hopefully someone can look at it. All the gears work, but there's something wrong with the push down mechanizism for reverse. It was fine on the way to work, but leaving work today it was messed up.

No problem Matt! Good luck with your radiator and trans! Im sure you'll be caught up when with how things went by the end of the weekend. Should be smooth sailing with these spring loaded pushrod tubes. ;D

They were tightened down when I put the "Wobble Stick" back in. Jack seems to think that the mounting plate is 180 out of place. Will be easier to see tomorrow in the light. All the gears work, except reverse you no longer have to push down and the 1,2,3,4 gears are really close together. Once you find first you are ok.

i was pulling out of work, and it wouldn't go into second, it kept trying to go into reverse. So I crutched it home w/o a 2nd gear shifter seemed Wobbly, put in the stock shifter and that was even worse. Jack thinks that the shifter mounting plate is 180 degrees off.  It will be a lot easier to see tomorrow in the daylight.

Had several decent size puddles under my car after the meeting, I'm a little worried. The push rod tubes were clean with no oil on them. I'm just hoping that the engine is sweating off the oil and grime.  :'(
Time to order the 1776 long block.

I have to ask the dumb question... Were the puddles there before you got there?
