Transmission

Late last year i picked up a complete '46 on chief transmission. It all looks good inside, some wear on slider gear and cluster gear but still a bit of life left in it! I decided just to use it as it is. I have a full set of new gears and shafts set aside if it needs a rebuild later on.

Back on the motor build

A couple of helicoils for the transmission studs done, cases back together, flushed out and re oiled the crank, fitted the pinion, followers, lifters and set the cam timing. I fitted the cylinders without the pistons and set the tappets tight, getting full lift and no coilbind now using new 741b Scout springs
