Ahh you mean on the outdrives? Thought you were talking about pinning the drive rings.

On one side the motor plate holds in the bearing but on the other side I didn't glue or use a screw. I thought the screw was only for when doing the bearing elimination mod since without the screw the outdrive had nothing holding it in. Since I eliminated the bearing inside the outdrive a little differently I didn't need the screw outside the case to hold in the 3/8x5/8.

I haven't raced a 6 gear car in over 20 years, but I always used blue locktite to set the rings. Some other guys used CA glue. I always thought the set screws would unbalance the gear.
