James_Douglas's post in 1953 Belvedere overdrive was marked as the answer
The main shaft if different between the non-OD and the OD units. You would have to gut the old unit no matter what. If it is out, just rebuild the 1953 unit with the OD and then put it in. See my long threads on the rebuilding of my units both in the last few months and around 2006.
I have another on the bench that that to put together in the nest few weeks. I also posed a week or two back a spread sheet with all the bearing and seal numbers.

James_Douglas's post in Another newbie M5 trans. question: falling out of gear was marked as the answer
The way this thing works is that once the load of off the trans AND the piston is pushed back by the spring due to the fluid dumping OR a lack of fluid it will drop out of gear. make sure it is filed up and NEVER drive a M5/M6 without full fluid.
Go over to the Imperial Club and read over all the service booklets on the trans...
