Thanks Al - it's actually an AGB. Raffi's going to bite the bullet - =
we're going to run to the yard where we know there's a 16v and just go =
grab it.

If anyone has anymore insight, please call us on my cell 650.302.6777

Wish us luck.  JT

  if its a non-factory lsd tranny (before about 85), it wont have the =
springs, and the flanges will be able to move in and out a bit.

    Raffi and I are knee deep in replacing his clutch and he noticed =
that there's a good 3mm play on both his driveshaft flanges. There still =
connected to tranny.  AFAIK, there shouldn't be any play, right?  Would =
this be symptomatic of drive flange seal failure or something else? Is =
it something that can be fixed with out cracking the tranny open?

    Thanks in advance!

    Jeff
