The gears are touching the bottom of the cover before it is even bolted up!!! About 1/2 to 3/4" too short!!!! So I call Summitt, what gives?? "Sorry sir" I am told, "This is the only and right one for your specs" They have no other. While at it I decided to tell them about the dipstick I ordered, the one with the smashed ring on the handle in the unopened sealed package!!! Am I frustrated, no, not me, where"s my beer???
So, now, how to find a cover that fits....................... And, Ironhorse, I agree with you, I am getting too damn old for this crap.
There are two different covers. Depends on your flywheel. The 153 tooth and 168 tooth are different.
All the chrome ones are the 153 tooth.
Post a link of the one you got.
