I don't have time to go into detail on the tranny but here is a video of the finished gearbox and the shifting. The gearbox is symmetrical with a shift lever on both sides.
Basically the shifter is on an acme lead screw the is attached to a gear with pressure plates on both sides. The shifter engages the pressure plates and gear to either a forward powered gear or a reverse powered gear.

Looks awsome, forward/reverse shaft looks like a johnson outboard lower unit set up.

LOL, I have no idea what you are talking about. I kinda just pulled the idea from my arse. All the parts are custom made from scratch. The acme screws are off the shelf and machine for functionality. The gears are standard blanks from a catalog that I machined to my needs.
I suppose I could have done more research in the design but I like to shoot from the hip, crunch my own numbers and design.
Glad you like it.

I just googled it and found an exploded diagram. Similar, there are lot's of thrust bearings to try to help with the clutch pressure thrust forces.
