This looks real simple. It might be easier than I first thought.
Getting the roll pins out with Jean's bigger hammer goes a long way
towards making this viable.

 I love your Rhino illustrations.

 Would there be an easy way to show how the sun-gear shaft/bearings fit
 into this. With some sort of virbration/damper/isolation between the
 rotor-shaft and the sun-gear I find myself puzzled as to how everything
 stays where it is supposed to be/

 Robin No name :)


 The same way Tracy does it.

 The weak link so far has been the stock Mazda auto tranny flex plate.
 Ed Carver is working on fixing that as well.

...and the pin holding the sun gear to the input shaft.

Yes and that too.

Thanks for the pics. are you still considering the bellhousing,
or is it to mount on the front crossmember plate?
