[DeTomaso] Input schaft.

[Roland Jaeckel]

Goran,
You didn't miss anything.
Thomas already gave the explanation.
The input shaft uses the chevy spline and is thinner at the end.
But, what is more importand:
The input shaft of the dash 1 box is shorter!
One of the four pieces in the parts catalog is a steel part in the crank,
that makes the crank longer to catch the input shaft.
If you don't have that, the gearbox won't last long.

As I was installing Peders gearbox I had a hard time getting in place. It dosent really 
agreed to accept the disc. It turned out that the dash 1 gerbox of Peder had a 1 1/8"
diameter input schaft!!! AND, a smaller diameter pilot tap. 
I thought I missed something, but as I removed my own gearbox today it DID have the 
1 1/16" input shaft and the "normal" pilot diameter. Isn`t 1 1/8" the Chevy size?
Hmmmm.
