Aurel, The motor has roughly around 130k on the clock. When I bought the car the speedometer worked for about a hundred miles then died. I drove the car all of last summer and fall. I sent the speedo to North Hollywood Speedometer to get it fixed. They did a fantastic job. Yep all bearings are going to be replaced except for the #8. Ike @ Ollie's said there was no need to buy a brand new one as long as you recondition it.
Basically, I'm going to replace all the parts described in Wayne's book that must be replaced with new. I started this rebuild with a 7k budget plain, it's looking more like 12k-13k... The nightmares and sleepless nights already have started!

I actually read your thread and took you up on your recommendation, but I didn't try the bolt out kit. My Dad was afraid we might damage the case in the process.
