[QUOTE="boilermaster, post: 402404, member: 3075"] Q1svt, Really? This forum is quite tame in comparison to the Harley shovelhead forum I am also on and I have pretty thick skin. One thing that I have learned about being on forums is we never know each others skill levels until we have several personal interactions on the forum, and after that it's still a guess. I can get the measurements from the aluminum bell in the next couple of days , that bell is on the car and I will have to put it on my lift to measure. When I installed my TKX it was somewhat difficult to actually get the shifter stub into the OEM shifter opening, as one is, attempting to get the transmission to mesh at the same time, my transmission jack was almost useless. Modern Driveline says you MAY have SLIGHT issues with the opening due to production variances. Don't know if that is the case for everyone or not. You will note that there is a stiffener plate on the underside of the opening where the threaded holes for the shifter boot are located. MY best solution ( so far ) was to graft the opening from my donor car on to what I had to cut off of my existing opening. I am using OEM full councel with no ill effects. Boilermaster [/QUOTE]
