I had a lot of suggestions to help solve the governor gear not spinning with the shaft. I ended up having a machine shop cut a keyway in the shaft and the governor gear to match. The owner did not want to take a chance of it not working when it was in the car (again). I believe that the overdrive assembly was put together with spare parts. There were no diagrams that matched what I had. The job ended up at my shop because no one would work on it. It looks great and went together fine. Thanks to all of you for responding.
