It looks like the case on the TKX has a smaller input shaft hole than the TKO600 as why the input doesn't pull out, it must be easier for them to add a plate than a shorter drive input shaft if the shaft is not available anymore,
Thanks for the replies

Ross , I was told about the spacer plate but he never mentioned specific bell housing or anything like that, I do have a QT top loader bell housing that I would like to use. Thanks for the reply

Brent, I would like to use my QT bell housing, I'll have to check the shaft part number out but I do have a buddy that could turn down the shaft now that IHRA went belly up he has some extra time now, I asked about the TKO shaft but the guy on the phone acknowledged when I said the TKO had a different shaft but never mentioned they were the same or it was an option on the TKX. Thanks for the reply

475 fetoploader, I'm wanting to use my top loader bell housing and change my McLeod single disc Soft loc to dual disc street clutch on my 63 Fairlane, I have a mechanical clutch now but considering hydraulic since the clutch linkage rubbs a little bit on the inner tie rod on tight left turns. Thanks for the reply

Has anybody done a FE with a TKX transmission and what did you have to make it it work ?
The older TKO600 used a shorter shaft for FE's if I remember right but wasn't sure on the newer TKX model what you use

Blair does the street Dominator leave much HP on the table at this power level and cubes or sit just fine among the others ? What was the reason for using the Street Dominator out of curiosity ?
Sweet 390 what's it going in ?

Wreckless Warren on the old site had a bunch of nice write ups with pictures while restoring his dads P code 65 Galaxy , pretty sure it was a non drilled block among other things that made it unique

X3 on Ohio Crankshaft, our local machine shop uses them for crankshaft service, always looks good and measures correctly, they do a lot of balancing too

Promaxx heads are pretty decent, they put quality valves in them and the machine work is nice or it least a set of SBC that we installed for a customer were,, our local machine shop was impressed with the off shore pieces and said everything checked out good (BTW they hate Speedmaster).

Those manifolds are pretty decent compared to most other Ford manifolds , those guys that run in the F.A.S.T class port the dickens out of those manifolds , it'll be a nice sleeper

Nice package! Blair's building mine similar to yours, full CNC BBM B's with T&D's, 482, TFS 2x4, small solid roller going in a 65 Fastback that's back halved with modified 68 shock towers, hopefully we will have or be close to your power numbers too
