Aidan's loose oily bunghole actually runs a track lap

So I figured out how to extend the shifter on the t5 for you. It involves finding a source for a t5 offset lever, doesnt matter what version of the tranny. I had to buy one used because for the life of me I couldnt find anyone selling one new. I still havent figured out a boot solution yet for the freeze plug.

I have an idea for the freeze plug. Make an aluminum bushing that fits in the freeze plug location and inside the bushing use an axle shaft seal on the shift extension
What is the offset shifter. Pictures?
Had a mix of good and bad today. I love Oregon Raceway Park it's so much fun. It was an open lapping day which was awesome.
Npt is the devil. Last night my fuel pressure sensor leak. Today brake caliper connection was leaking. Brake fluid everywhere.
Star specs are done after 6 events really pissed off about this.
Manifold has another small crack. Not very pissed off about this easy to fix.
Will post pictures later

About to cord. 6 track days. 1 auto-x. 3* camber. 0 toe I believe.
Never thought the manifold would crack like this. It's in the middle of the pipe. Any thoughts?
Ed did a few laps with his rear pad in backwards.

It makes sense in my head I swear.

"offset level" is borgwarner speak for the right angle thingy that connects to the shift rod and has the cut for the ball on the shifter stick to go into. I'm going to weld a block onto the one that fits the tranny with a hole drilled in it for an additional piece of rod and roll pin. And then the offset lever I bought for like a chevy t5 is what I'll put on the end of the rod just to basically use as the shifter tip.

Basically exactly this final solution that I found literally just now when I was trying to see if the guy that used rod ends figured out a boot solution. http://texaslocost.homestead.com/Remoteshifter.html

Because the shift rod stick most of the way into its hole and I need like some meat to stick and pin the extended shift rod too. I need to keep the offset lever because it also does the shift gates and the shift detents.
