Hey thanks for coming in Houston Ben. I had seen your build and wanted to ask you about the shift linkage.Why did you go with the shiftworks kk02 instead of the lokar linkage? Did you have to modify the kk02 in anyway for it to function? How is it holding up. To answer your question about the tranny pan i will say this,I am not woried about tranny pan clearance at all as the engine oil pan is the one that hangs the lowest. I am using the stock oil pan though so i expected this but it fit without any issues. Crossmember is legit especially so you can run the dual exhuast without any routing problems. Nice build Ben.
