developed this in 2019 and installed it in my boat, no issues so far For alpha1 and alpha gen ii housings
Here you go 39/64 drill bit ..6094 , 1/4 inch pipe coupling, 1/4 x 18 NPSF tap , Red Loc-Tite.
With 1 hex machined off, the O.D of the sleeve is .619 leaving a .010 press fit. Once installed tap it thru if preferred but only a 5/8ths depth is needed for the shift cable threads
If needed PM me if you want it done
The new coupling
After some machining
Installed
NO PERSONAL QUESTIONS, THIS IS WHAT THE FORUM IS FOR.
