Yes I suck at video edit... hence why I didnt..

Tranny shaft assembly.
NOTE:  Custom overdrive 5th gear... the shims shown on first gear on 2nd shaft are not in stock trans!!
           Yes... the snap ring plyers I wanted to use are MIA... so I had to use 45deg ones that were slightly to big... so you get to suffer as much As I did putting them on watching..... 
Also A tip.
On my NORMAL (wood) Bench.. I have various holes drilled in the bench... for differant shaft sizes..  so when assembling somthing like this. you can drop the shaft in the hole and use it as a stand to hold it while you deal with the snap rings...

I appreciate your taking the time to document this.
I can't wait to see the next installment  :-D
The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

It realms is amazing how much harder things are to do while a camera is watching...

Absolutely.
Congrats for sticking your neck out for the benefit of others.
If you lived a bit closer I'd be happy to help you with the video.
Then again it's good to see an honest real world video were a guy busts his knuckles and has a little slip up here and there.  :-)
Thanks again.

Another special note.   That wasn't final assembly....  Few of my snaprings wernt as tight as I like due to previos person in there... They are on order and tranny will go together on the bench I'm used to (2' higher)..
Figured I'd shoot the video with ones I don't care about.   And in the mean time I can figure out which friend stole my snapon pliers that actually work on these rings...
