i got the hd kevlar band for my tranny, i got the 5.0 lever for $20 and the 4.2 we're $40, didnt know about the overlap on the 5.0 issue till after i ordered it. the valve body im using has the b&m mods in it, will that make a difference in the overlap issue. the b&m kit has you drill the plate in a few spots , nothing to crazy. on another issue , what is the max clearence between the input shaft and the output shaft. what i've come up with is the thrust bearing and two shims with no movement between the two. that is with no gasket on the front pump housing. i did it that way as to not mess up the gasket every time i pulled it apart. so when i put the gasket on there will a little clearence. will that work ?
