Tear down and reassembly of the Datsun 280z 5-speed in my MGB

A number of years ago I upgraded my 1974 MGBGT Autocrosser from an overdrive transmission to the Rivergate 5-speed conversion using a Datsun 280z 5-speed transmission. I had rebuilt that transmission when we put the temporary used engine in. But, mysteriously there was a single snap ring left on the workbench. Since it shifted smoothly and didn’t make any odd noises, I figured it would be ok until I built my new engine later that year (of course that didn’t happen)  and that left over snap ring has been in the back of my mind ever since. So now that we’ve pulled that engine to install the new performance rebuilt one, it was time to see if that missing snap ring might be the cause of the shimmering silver oil that came out of the transmission. So in this video, we go back to when the engine was out and we tear into the Datsun 280z 5-speed transmission to see where the “extra” snap ring from the last time was supposed to go and look for any excessive wear.
