Default Richmond Six Speed install updates

No pics to share yet...but soon (I am shooting for monday night to upload).

This project is taking longer than it should due to the fact I had to also pull the diff and replace the clutch in the posi unit.

I cut my X member a little different than most, and of course with using the hydraulic clutch..have a few twists involved in setting it up and installing it.

As I write this, the trans is in, attached to the Lakewood scatter shield and hooked through the Quarter Master flywheel and clutch assembly.

It looks like I am going to have some minor issues with the sending unit for the electric speedo that feeds my autometer gauge.

The goal is to have it fully flogged out and road worthy by OctoberVette on 10/11.

Pics to come!
