Thats sucks.  I am guilty of not opening packages to inspect myself. Bit me a time or two and definitely sucks. Glad they were even willing to do anything but seems like a good company.

I'd ask if you are pulling your hair out but................well you know.

  ya I still have my last 3 hairs. Going to start cutting the old shifter out tonight.

Soooooo.all is normal?

   

Oh,the joys of a mid engine.  Rear engine is a piece of cake. Your issues are why I went with a sequential.

Beginning to regret not going sequential.  Rear engine shifter systems are available at weddle. 2 years ago Sean said they were working on a mid engine system. Ron weddle stayed that again yesterday 

I know its a good trans, the lack of info and accessories support as in bolt on weldable flanges, shifter systems or even the shaft couplers to use as a base. This trans is completely foreign to all of the common trans .

Yes mid engine is always a struggle or more of a struggle but I pre fer it. When one finds they just wasted 4.5 hrs and GET TO cut it all out and start over....really knocks the wond out of ones sails.  its my own fault, should've stopped when I saw the discrepancy and verified.

On another note, I tried every configuration, this recipe tank will not fit. My round one is going back in until I have time to design a custom tank. I spent 4 hrs, making a base mount, straps etc etc. Onto of frame constraints, the an 8 fitting on top of the trans for an external oil cooler cannot be capped. It has to be routed back into the trans. There is a secondary pair of an 8 ports for an external oil cooler.  I thought one could cap the top pair. It is what it is, ill get it usable for now and might even build a new frame.
