I see the TKX mid position is 12.5 and the "S10" T-5 (yours I think) is 11.5"

I would like to see where your shifter comes up out the the floor and if it interferes with the factory bench seat?

I would like to tow with my truck (Chevy 350/300hp), but I think the T-5 would not hold up since max torque is 310ft/lbs. I think the TKX is a better choice for me @600 ft/lbs.

If you have some interior pics, that would be great! Thanks!

ps, my truck is all apart, cab is off the chassis, no mounted engine, so measuring is tough
Contact Jody Haag at Jody's Transmissions in PA. He sells TKX transmissions and custom shifters to fit special applications. He's very helpful and great to work with.
