I need one (would prefer to get both) of the two special "lock screws" that bolt through the 1941 manual transmission pan.  These are part number 1419662.  They lock the countershaft and the reverse idler gear shaft (prevent the shafts from rotating).  They are 3/8" diameter, 2-3/8" long, with ~1-1/8" of the end of the bolt machined down to a 1/4" diameter cylindrical "pin" (which passes through a hole in the shaft to "lock" it).  These bolts have 9/16" heads.  I suppose I could have a few machined, but thought it would be easier and better if I could find the original part.  Any such bolt from a 1937 through 1947 manual transmission should work (and be correct).

I also need the speedometer drive pinion gear for the same transmission.  It has 17 teeth (for the 3.36:1 rear axle ratio), is part number 1442172, and is stamped "R1".  The part number is for the pinion gear itself.  I'd prefer to get one mounted on its shaft (part number 1419361).  Any speedo gear marked "R1" from 1941 through at least 1947 should work.

Thank you in advance for your reply.
