so you are having problems getting it in the hole?


what if you try putting the driveshaft in and wiggling it while you try pushing it into the engine? check near the starter and make sure no lines are getting sandwiched between block and tranny.

Can you take a high res picture of the inerds of the spline?

I've deburred 1000s of splines and gears, both internal and external. The chamfer does nothing but make sure the burr is either gone or at least not interfering with the spline engagement. "chamfering the ever living **** out of it is like saying you got a bolt to fit by drilling out the threads. If a spline doesn't fit, there are VERY specific reasons why, all of which cannot be solved by any home tools. Fab masters from Absurdflow or Artech don't even have the tools. Gear/spline tooling is very specific. Something on your shaft is damaged or over sized, or something in your splines is damaged or undersized.

Sounds like you messed up the clutch. I've watched Sav take out (AND put back in) his trans multiple times with that exact setup. And he's a vagina.

Ahahaha. Thank you for that. That was a good laugh.

Damn Fae, sorry to see so much trouble. Maybe your clutch already got allofit and doesn't want any more.

I think they should all wear Lord of the Trannies shirts tonight when they try to get this **** in. Maybe some lipstick too.

I've got a hammer and chisel set and live 15 miles from Fae. Can I stop by too?

Actually, I'll be in Columbia tonight with the wife and kid. Maybe the can install it?

Then you need to see THIS GUY for an e-tune. He has e-tuned more on LegacyGT.com than any other. Very reasonably priced too and he is an awsome tuner. He tuned my LGT to 333awhp/340awtq and I couldn't be happier.
