Re: installing transmission

NastyRican,
if the shaft goes in and out as you actuate the clutch lever on the side of
the tranny, it should be good to go.
the clutch lever (or pedal) will just drop to the floor until the tranny is
fully bolted up to the engine (since thats where the mating surface is for
the shaft that goes in and out). Even so much as 1/4" gap between
engine/tranny can make the clutch seem to not work at all.
