Machine down regular LS1 input shaft and use the larger pilot bearing I have an LS1 input shaft that has the end galled due to a bad pilot bearing.
Can I simply re-use this input shaft if I machine it shorter to use larger Corvette
pilot bearing as shown here:

Would I have any foreseeable issues with the clutch if I do this?
Do the TR-6060 transmissions in the 2010+ Camaro use this style pilot bearing with a shorter input shaft?

We just cut the tip down and press a case hardened bushing on the end of it. This is actually better than stock because the thickness of hardened material is thicker than what comes from Tremec.
