We have only built a few of them. One went into the Goodguys giveaway car the boydster crew built.

As i recall the yoke is a new / different size from the 727 / 518 stuff

that's about what i figured.
any chance of a part #?
this may end up not being MY problem but i'll bet it does...

it's been a while, but we have one the 5 speeds in the shop. Same yoke as the 727 will fit this monster.

A few photos to show the tranny. large electrical connector.

The photo of the vavle body .... those are ALL screws that hold the sucker together!

the new cars are amazing as Carps has carp'd about.

this VW Jetta we bought has airbags everywhere it seems. Above the doors , in the A pillar, front seats, besides the dash air bags. Insurance was cheaper because of the air bags.

The XA is a great car. We would have bought one if the interior color was availbible in a lighter color.

We still like the HHR from the General too. Tons of space inside it.

I like them too. I drove one last week and it's just the right size for me. It had plenty of power too. GM is finally putting a reasonable price on something. I just don't want to go in debt again but they sure are tempting. There are some customs being built with LS6's in them.....585 hp.
