Pilot Bearing

Hmm, odd, do you have the 01A tranny with Torsen?  If so, the input shaft is short and thick, it would not even reach to the crank if you wanted to use the other type.  Mine is an '88, early too, with the later style, I believed that the change was with the 01A tranny, I would believe it if you still had an 016?
