Nicely done, both of you. Have never worked with helicoils so looks like a nice option. Isn't or wasn't that piece being made in real metal -- maybe brass -- by someone as a permanent cure?

Great stuff!
I'll bring to Warren a manual control valve lever with a stripped thread for you to put a helicoil in and a pan gasket, of course. Ole

Helicoil is an easy solution to restoring damaged threads. A kit will cost about $30 for a 5/16" size and includes several thread coils, a tap tool, and the insert tool. The tap size drill, unfortunately, is not included. I recently had to do a thread repair to an exhaust manifold and the Helicoil worked like a charm. It should work in blind and through holes; although, I have only used it in through holes. The kits should be available at any good auto parts store, I bought mine at my nearby NAPA store.

Even with a helicoil I always finish that job by drilling clean through the casting and shaft and inserting a roll pin so that even if you removed the bolt you still have a nice tight shifting action. My first boss after engineering school was emphatic to never use a set screw for a reversing load.

Randy,
I see you have a pot metal parking paw roller block. I have had to replace mine with the metal ones from Ultramatic dynamics. I agree with Ross on the role pin. I had the opportunity to spend a week with Bob Aller many years ago. We rebuilt my burned up 56 clipper transmission, and a couple of 55's. He did the same.
