Default One piece T56 Countershaft (Z06/SSR) endplay clearance

Is there anything different that needs to be done when checking for endplay clearance / shimming when a 1 piece counter shaft is being used instead of the two piece?

Anything I find when I search is related to the two piece, which is what is in the T56 manual.

The front of the one piece CS has the notch for the Z06 cooling pump to fit into.

The rear of the one piece CS uses a straight bearing, rather than the tapered bearing that the two piece CS use, so is preload is less of a concern here?

Shim based on the front two bearings using the case and the front adapter plate.
There's no shimming possible for the rearmost straight bearing.

Thanks. I've been searching everywhere for an answer to that question.

Do you happen to know if the clearance check for triple/dual cone synchros is the same for the dual/single Fbody synchros? (.020" minimum?).

That info, too, is hard to find.
