Assembling 200-4R, direct/forward drum question

[MSDGN]

I'm assembling my 200-4R. I put the forward drum into the direct drum and it took a little turning to get it seat. Putting both the direct/forward was another story. Took a few tries. I think I got it in and seated so I proceeded to install the center support. Center support went in OK, got the bolts in and hand tight for now. Installed the beveled snap ring. My question is the direct/forward drum totally seated. Take a look at the pics. Is there
supposed to be a gap between the edge of the direct drum and the input drum? I would think if the direct drum isn't seated I wouldn't have been able to get the center support all the way in and get the snap ring in, but I may be wrong.

Yep center support bolts are in so I guess there is supposed to be a gap between direct/input drum
