Centurion's transmission is ready for battle!

The transmission needed a couple synchro-rings, a bearing, and layshaft. Luckily the overdrive screen is as fine as it is. Certain destruction was averted by the screen capturing a few internal kung-fu shooting stars destined for the overdrive's pump.

Those keeping track will remember a few posts back of a weight reduction through a shorter exhaust system fabricated for Centurion and going from about 28lbs down to 7lbs will be helpful for trying to top Centurion's 2015 Green Grand Prix performance.

Getting the bellhousing on the transmission was fairly easy.

All assembled, it's time to give Centurion her soul back:

When lifting the assembly, the overhead beam didn't creak this time!
