Well I finally had a bit of time this weekend to "play" with the 782 and work on the engine mounting and driveshaft.. The 1864 called for .469" spacers between the engine and the plate.. I did that and didn't like the upward slope of the driveshaft.. So i kept playing with it and wound up with more like 1/4 spacers.. now the driveshaft is nice and in line with the pump shaft.. Also had to go back and slot my plate ever so slightly to give the driveshaft just a bit of float. Everything seems happy now and I am content to leave it alone.  I used a fan support and driveshaft adapter from Jeff in PA... Very nice parts! I went back and added two more fan supports behind the fan to use as just spacers.. the fan was almost touching the filter.. Now I have room to get the filter off and not worry with the fan hitting the filter. I rebuilt the CV's with new balls and boots... packed them both with the recommended Polyrex grease.
I'd say by the logo on the filter it's been there just a little while?
