We don't think theirs would fit, we are working on a Steeda version though!David - would the billet pull up collar released by MGW work on the Tri-Ax (or does Steeda have something similar in the works)?
Happy to provide some insight, Danny!David, As you know I currently am running the Barton and I did the installation myself.
So with that said. It looks like the section of factory linkage that some have asked about is the exact same as what Barton re-uses as well.
I had some questions /notes: In your instructions Figure 26 it looks like the Dynamat is used in place of the factory rubber boot? I think this is to allow for the best way to reduce NVH? Typically that rubber boot sandwiches between the bottom and top of the shifter tunnel, to keep out some noise, dust, etc. I do see in Figure 27 that the boot is placed back on the shifter. I would assume this just kind of sits there now?
I will confirm once my shifter arrives but to me your shifter looks to be a little thinner height wise than the Barton, and your base only uses 4 bolts where theirs uses 6 or 8. This could account for some of the weight shed in your shifter vs. the competition Again I will confirm my speculation once the Tri-Ax is here and I am doing the swap.
Regards,
Danny
The Dynamat completely encloses the transmission tunnel, then we put the rubber boot on top to assist in NVH isolation as it prevents some noise coming through.
Our shifter is all aluminum and the way we designed the mid plate, top plate and bottom plate contributes to the weight savings.
