Related to this transmission I noticed that the pilot nose on the intake shaft has some wear from about 1/2 inch to 1 inch from the splined section. It measures about .003 less dia than back by the splined section (about .0682 versus .0655). Since I'm going to have to cut the shaft shorter to mate up with a FE block crankshaft most of this will be gone. I'm not really seeing this as a big problem - is it???
