for awhile I wished I would have went with the S60. I can tell you the quality of the welds were great. It fit well. I cant tell you anything else since the car isnt up and going yet.

The canter is:
yukon thrubolt case
billet support
1350 yoke
Drag spool
motive gears

Yes it did fit well, I did have to take a step bit and drill the pan hard bolt hole out larger. That was the only issue as far as stock fitment.

The other issue I ran into was with my aftermarket BMR torque and the torque arm bracket from QP. The bracket on the BMR is pretty bulky and I had to trim some off of the QP bracket to make it work.

FWIW this wouldnt have been an issue with the stock torque arm or the Edelbrock torque arms I've seen. Im unsure about the rest.
