update:
when i started to take the tailshaft housing apart i found alot more damage. & I got to thinking about all the stuff thats been weird with this trannylike how it jumped into reverse by itself while i was breaking in the cam...& how it felt like it was try'n to be in 2 gears at once when it gernaded. Another tranny guy looked at the pics i posted here & said hes seen this damage b4 when the car is moving forward & slammed into reverse or when the the reverse clutch is put in backward or the low/reverse band is not set right...

anyone else had something similar?

i've been having a hard time swallowing that a ujoint cap coming loose at low speed did this damge but...
