How did the install go' It looks huge, and was wondering if the tailshaft can go up high enough to get good driveline angles. Looks like the mechanical linkage can be retained along with the existing bellhousing provided you buy a 200.00 adapter plate, which pushes the trans back a bit....

Gee, I got sidetracked when I unexpectely bought a ZZ502 (http://www.chevelles.com/forums/showthread.php't=308436). Anyway, back to the 12 bolt, I noticed that the right side outer was about 1/8" from being bottomed in the housing. I installed it about 8 years ago. Do these bearings ever...
