T5 swap: How much tunnel clearance for a slip yoke?

Shinchan · 10-14-2020, 05:09 PM

Finally getting things where I need to to measure for the length of the front driveshaft for my T5 swap in my 142. Unfortunately I wasn't paying attention and the T5 slip yoke that I got is a 1330 instead of a 1310. The yoke rotates freely, and at the tightest point of the rotation it comes within about 3/16-1/4" of the tunnel. Is this enough clearance, or am I going to have to bite the bullet and buy another $80 slip yoke?
