Yaxy Posted March 16, 2008 Author Report Posted March 16, 2008 yup that is it. Man! I have a hard time believing that the plate is necessary. There is that little notch behind on the case that oil willdrip through onto the tranny shaft but it appears without it the shaft would get more oil. The plate seems like is acts as a shield. Is it worth to retap or not worry about it? Chris Quote

It would bother me to leave it out, so personally, I would put it in! Quote
Yaxy Posted March 16, 2008 Author Report Posted March 16, 2008 I guess it does make sense to put it back on. I guess i will drill and tap to a M6x1 and go. Chris Quote
alcoholbanshee Posted March 16, 2008 Report Posted March 16, 2008 The picture shows the piece that goes from one case half to the other missing. Right below the piece you guys are describing. IMO that is a very important piece. There is a lot of case flex in that area, and that piece helps control the flex....Like I said.....my opinion!! Quote

Didnt go back to take another one after i put the retainer piece back in! Quote

I didnt build my 421, thats why it wasnt there, but I do agree, that piece needs to be there. Quote
