None of the various special tools cluttering up my tool box will hold the clutch bell while tightening the pinion gears. In the past I've torqued them on tight with lock tight, so they wouldn't loosen with deceleration (other cars). So I wound up holding the bell in my hand and using the plastic gear holders to tighten them, and hope the engine will finish the job.

Cool. I guess you already got your 710 assembled?
If you have a machine shop, the holes in the one way driveshaft adaptors can be done.

Guys
I have a question, when your putting together you 2 speed and you place it on the two speed shaft is there supposed to be a lot of play between the second gear and the bearing to the left of it. I put that round spacer inbetween and its still about 1.5mm to 2mm movment between the two, that dosnt seem right, what could be wrong?

The 2 speed shaft must have end float or else you can damage the shaft bearings, this happened on the 705 if the shaft was not setup correctly.
