Bellhousing Experience Quicktime vs Lakewood

I worked on a car with a Quick Time Bell... The alignment was off by over .065.. Nobody sells offset dowels to correct that much misalignment.... So I machined a pair.... Only to discover that in order to bolt the bellhousing to the block I would have to open up the bolt holes... Customer didn't want to do that so it got sent back to QT... Used a stock bellhousing that bolted up and was within .003 with standard dowels..
