Help the Newb! Saginaw 4 speed questions

[Tellerbama]

Never mind, I got some help with kids today and was able to get it all put together. My shifting linkage arms weren't standard size though so I had to drill press the holes to 1/2" but eventually got it together. I wouldn't say it's super smooth but it's 1000x better. Whoever set it up last did a good job aligning everything...I didn't have to move the rods much. Thanks for all the info, guys. Now I just gotta address the cracked exhaust manifold and I should be grabbing milk in style.
