that would be natural, depending on which diesels.  afaik it was
intended for medium-duty -gas- engines, 400 ft-lbs and under.  on most
trannies the output shaft goes first though.

hmmm...  afaik all np/nvg t/c since the 207 have the same 6-bolt
pattern and -most- have 23 spline inputs, but a few are 21 spline and
the top end [like the 271] have 29.  what tranny did they hook it to?
i don't think there's a 29-apline output for the 727, though aa or
novak might have something.
