Then why would a factory box fit fine before the swap? So far I'm 2 for 3 installed having alignment issues. The other one leaked from the weld. All 3 were swaps with their original K Frames and factory boxes. I'm probably going to pull the trigger on #4 before my June track day.


If you look closely at the OE boxes there is a very small operating angle. Because the new box is narrower and needs the angle to point towards the steering column, this angle is exaggerated.
