Cutting A833 Input Shaft Question

Measure from the trans surface of the bell to the depth of the crank hole. Then measure from the face of the trans to the end of the shaft. Give yourself at least 1/16 difference so the shaft doesn't bottom in the hole and cut off what is not needed . Slide and old bushing or pipe on the shaft cut to the amount you want to keep. Put the trans in gear and have someone spin the output using a driveshaft yoke while you cut the shaft with a cut off wheel. This will keep it true to length. You can use this same method to taper the end after taking the Bushing /pipe off. They cut down mopar Hemi trans inputs all the time to install in GM's
