So I am at the stage where it is time to put everything back together and get it in my car. I have a new Rich Johnson accelerator linkage but I can't figure out how to get it on there. I have seen pictures of some people boxes but mine intermediate plate has something there's didn't. What do I do?
I know I need to drill and tap where I circled in green. The yellow I know is where it slips on the stud. The red/ pink (or whatever color it is) is the area I don't see on other boxes. Attached image(s)

Jon, the area in green does not get tapped out. It's the area in pink, but is that a bolt head I see in the pic? If so, it is already tapped out if it has a bolt there. The pic of mine is from an orignal six converted to side shift........

Maybe the pivot stud on Rich's will thread into the boss, then you wont need to drill and tap . If not remove the bolt for clearance and follow the directions below.
Rich's instructions. 1. Find the transmission side cover stud that is positioned at 8 o'clock. This will be the forward mounting stud for the bell-crank bracket. Double jamb-nut it and remove it. Use some Locktite 242 (blue) and reinstall it so it has a length of 18mm (aprox 11/16") exposed. 2. Locate the stud boss on the side of the transmission that is in-line with the 8 o'clock stud and the center of the transmission's output flange. This is the boss that will be used to mount the stud provided with the kit. It will be the rear mounting point of the bracket. Reference the picture if you have any questions. 3. Center punch the boss. Use a 3/16" drill and mark it 5/8" from its tip with a felt marker. This will be used to reference how deep you will be drilling into the trans. case. Carefully (soft alloy) drill the case with the 3/16's" bit making sure you drill square to the case. This is important so the stud installs correctly. Carefully (soft alloy) re-drill the hole with a 17/64" drill. Tap the hole with an 8mm X 1.25 tap. 4. Use the stud provided (8mm X 1.25) and install it to the 1/2 hole depth using some Locktite 242 to keep it in. Install the spacer nut. 5. Mount the bell-crank bracket and adjust. Attached image(s)

So does this mean I actually have a 6 billet plate?

From what I've read some of the 4cyl's were tapped also. Mine wasn't, so I tapped it and made my own post.

So can I just helicoil it then if it is stripped? I can see it goes to where the stud goes through but there is no fluid travel in the area back there right? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

There is a cavity behind the thread, but no oil will leak and you will not expose your oil to metal swarf.
If you keep going you'll get through to the oil eventually (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
