      Hi All,
      I have a used BW Velvet drive I picked up cheap and want to test it out.   First question, anyone know how to do this without just disassembling the unit?
      I read a recommendation online that you could test one by connecting a power source to the input shaft of the transmission to see if the output spins, etc.  However to do that I need to fit something over the input shaft which I understand could be rigged up with an old damper plate.
      So anyone have a used or broken damper they can off?
      ThanksSkip

      ,Skip,
      Unfortunately both my old damper plates went into the dumpster years ago.
      You might check with a VD dealer in your area to see how much it would cost
      for them to check it out.
