Why? I read a comment online once by a guy from, I think, synchrotech, saying that the countershafts are different lengths. Is that why? So a person could not drop a 2.95 fed HF final drive into a fifth or sixth gen transmission?

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
