Comet never made a backplate for the 40 series. Only aftermarket. It wasn’t originally meant to be used like that. Plates, reverse springs, alignment issues… toss em in the bin. I think with the reverse spring, you still want the driven to float on the Jackshaft to allow self alignment during the shift. I remember the convo with sid but don’t remember how the driver unit was installed on this engine.
