 Tim,

I got one of those cranks with the 1986 HCI engine I bought a few years ago.  That rear pilot bearing is HUGE!  Fortunately, the ID is the correct size for the JH 4sp transmission input shaft....hmmmm....someone must have been thinking....

Anyway, when I had my Supra transmission rebuilt, I liked that pilot bearing so much, I got my machinist to turn down the W58 input shaft to the JH specs.  That now gives me the option of having a JH 4sp/5sp as a 'back-up'.

Now all I've got to do is maodify the Excel bellhousing from hydraulic to cable clutch....
