I like what you did with the pedals for the return mechanism

Hey KartFab,

Your video on how to remove tires and fix rusty rims really helped me out. I don't think I would've been able to get through with out it.

Question: When installing the Driven on a jackshaft, does the end of the jackshaft need to be threaded to fit a bolt on?

Is there an alternative to holding in the TC Driven onto the jackshaft?

you could buy a locking collar,( just google it e.g. 3/4" locking collar)

Use the set screw to mark where you want it, then drill a shallow hole where the mark on the jackshaft is to prevent the collar from slipping off. They typically wont slip, but thats just an added safety thing. Also blue thread locker on the set screws.

Brilliant! Thanks

Thanks everyone for the tips! Today should be the first test drive. Engine has been mounted, Torque Converter in place. I installed a chain and adjusted the jackshaft alignment. Installed a fresh brake line. All that is left is the throttle connection and she will be flying... (hopefully)

the second picture is grainy due to the fact I worked well into the evening.
