This is a standard tranny. I'm leaving tranny in place purely out of fear of bleeding the clutch!

Haven't I read on here before that a cheap clutch alignment tool for Volvo's will work on these cars? Would this be something that Napa sells?
Also, thanks for the info 79300sdtd. And heck yea, pics are always welcome. Crayon is first choice, but digital is a good second choice.....
