You can see the issue I have with the 3 speed band. It just doesn't fit the drum very well. 

Maybe there is enough contact for it to work though?

That appears to be the correct band. Contact between the brake lining and the drum a bit over ¾ of the circumference is normal and plenty to lock the wheels if the lining is in good condition.

This is how the 3-speed and 6-speed setup looks.

I was able to get the adapter cut on the EDM by a coworker today. It fits like a dream in the SR-64 pulley. Haven't tried it on the transmission side yet, have some more paint to clean off before I get to that.

 

One step closer to getting the 8 speed swap completed with the additional SR-64 swap!
