They are using my factory th350 linkage that I got off the forum here so your linkage should not be an issue.

Look at you Mr. Fancy Pants, with your complete installation including a flywheel cover!

Good on you! Too many cars/trucks running around without them. You are sooo close!! Hope your drive shaft gets to you quickly.

I know I was like I even get a flywheel cover too? Def feel upper class now

driveline should be done tomorrow so I'll be taking the long way home (the short way is 2 3/4 miles).
