Ah, makes sense.
For what it's worth, I am a pretty hard core manual trans guy, but there are times I wonder if I shouldn't have gone auto.
If you bought your trans from Keisler, it is probably a TKO. The TKX wasn't released until a couple of years ago. Doesn't mean much, just so you know.
So when bought it from Keisler, did they modify the trans to make it fit so you didn't have to cut the crossmember? Because the A41 will probably require the front of the crossmember to be removed so it might still require some reworking.
Sweet build, BTW.
