This type for transmissions probably came with the 525.

Thank you very much for your input, yes you are right, they did use bravo's on that motor along with other and better options. So this is waht I found out today, first there's always a 1st time. When I removed the drive before installing the engine I did it in my back yard on a slopping grade and I removed it alone. Well, on the way out the ujoints must've clipped the bellows sleeve and pulled it out about a 1-1/2" on one side so upon attempting to do the install, drive would not go in all the way. Boy did I feel stupid but you live & learn everyday, thank again I appreciate this site and the members opinions!!
