Joe - 
I think you probably hit it on the head - the failure of the roll pin a
couple years ago probably caused some damage to the mainshaft splines. Even
though we welded the new roll pin in place, it just couldn't take the
torque. I have a new mainshaft in my inventory, and have a new input shaft
on its way from Houston. I will also be checking locally with some racer
types on ideas to make the coupling tougher. I was curious, though about
your comment on "roll pin failures due to plastic clutch lines" - is that a
relationship you have encountered? Its not something I've seen at all,
outside of my own rather unique situation. And you are right about the
great "Arnie types" - they make it all worthwhile.
