Brent - are you offering short input shaft kits?  Might be interested in swapping out the TKO600 for one if I could use my current clutch/bell/driveshaft setup.

I haven't really got the 411 on the input shaft stuff yet.  I don't know of any drop in kits and I think the ones that are out there have been modified factory TKX inputs.  I'm not for certain though and I'm having trouble getting answers.

Quicktime makes an FE bell housing that works with the 7.25" std input length of the TKO/TKX.  I'm running that one now having fought issues with my 428, short-input TKO and short bellhousing.

Or you can use a spacer plate between the bell and transmission. I have one for sale if anyone needs one. Was posted awhile back in the private sale area.

Same here - using the Quick Time 7.25" deep bell. Needed to put a spacer behind the fork pivot too. Not a big deal. Also cut driveshaft. If a kit were readily available, it would most likely be cheaper than all I did.
