I didn't think it was longer than a 1515, that's why I did a quick search and grabbed the measurements from a vendor page. Either way only the 1512 2650kv is shorter than your motor. Glad we got that cleared up! Lol

And this is the truck I was referring to in my previous post.

Of all things, the slipper gave me problems because the nut kept loosening, getting the steel spur so hot that it could have been used as a branding iron. I put some Loctite on it so that should be a non-issue. I'm gonna try a 22T pinion, box it up and give it back to the owner. Thanks for all the help and info guys, it was appreciated.

Final configuration. It's tight, but it all fits under the narrow Proline 50 Chevy P/U body.
