Rob,
If you drive the trans from the output shaft (driveshaft end), you MUST run
the drill counterclockwise. Damage to the OD will occur if you try to
engage it running the other way. If you are driving it from the input shaft
(bellhousing end), then you must run the drill clockwise. You can drive
either end properly provided you go only in the right direction. Note that
if you use the drill technique, you'll need a pretty powerful 1/2" drill
minimum or you won't get enough speed to build pressure in the OD hydraulic
circuit. About 1500 RPM under load should do just fine. 1200 might be
enough - I say 'might' - I wouldn't say you have a problem if it won't work
at that speed - switch to a bigger drill before you suspect a problem in the
OD.

Hi listers,
Which way do I turn The gearbox if i'm looking into the bellhousing to test
my OD. Clockwise or counter clockwise?
