the adapter plate was indeed wired ex factory for older models, eg TR2, TR3=
.

By the time TR6 came along, there was a version of "loctite"

Ive rebuilt hundeds and never had this happen

Suggest you check the tapped holes in the back of the case

 I have rebuilt dozens of these, both for my race car and a number of stree=

ld drill and tap 2 additional 1/4" holes in the adapter plate & gearbox hou=
sing, to the inside of the 2 bottom bolts that are about 6" apart.=C2=A0 Th=
ese bolts are as close to the gearbox housing as he could get, and still fi=
t them in.=C2=A0 I think we used a short (3/4" long?) 1/4" grade 8 bolt wit=
h Locktite.=C2=A0 This seemed to reduce the leakage considerably.
If Bryan Brazelton has one of my old overdrive gearboxes around, perhaps he=
 could check the exact location of the 2 additional bolts and let the FOT k=
now.=C2=A0 I know I sold at least one close ratio overdrive gearbox with th=
e car and a straight close ration 4 speed.=C2=A0 Don't know exactly what is=
 with the car today.

I don't use the gasket because it can compress slightly when things get loa=
ded in use.=20
I go metal on metal, chamfer/deburr/dress the mating faces, clean, Permatex=
 "right stuff", good grade 8 bolts & red loctite.=20

Subject: [Fot] Type A OD leaks=20

When I built this transmission 2 years ago, I used red locktite on all of t=
hese bolts. I also had use the thin gasket with hylomar. Has anyone every s=
een these bolts back out like this before? Any suggestions on repair work t=
o make sure this doesn=E2=80=99t happen again?=20

I=E2=80=99m thinking of drilling all bolt heads and safety wiring all of th=
e. Have also thought of using helicoil on all of these since they are threa=
ded into aluminum.=20
