I'm not really a fan of adapter plates. I'm sure they work well, but it seems like more room for stacking tolerances and more hassle for dialing in the bellhousing.

I sell Quicktime bellhousings. They offer one that is the right length for a regular TKO with the longer input shaft. I sell way under retail for Club Cobra members. You could always sell your Lakewood since it's new and just bolt up a Q/T without any worries. I also sell RAM and McLeod clutches as well. If you're interested, let me know, I'll beat Jegs, Summit, etc.
