You're probably okay. Some input shafts are a bit too long but mine was fine without cutting it. I did have to find a clutch disk with the odd spline count, however. The main problem I encountered was the linkage. It just wasn't made for that short throwout bearing and geometry got the best of me until I made a new rod. Since then I've run into a couple of other guys who had to do the same thing. As I recall one guy just cut his old one apart, shortened it, made a collar out of a piece of steel hollow rod and welded that together. Would have been a lot less time than the cutting and bending I did.
