    Tarzan, it's not a clearance issue. When you see how the system operates you'll see why it wears there. Purely a material aspect. Fork pushes on the slider, not the synchro.

    It wears there because that's where the softer aluminum is pushing on the steel during the shifting process. Other platform's aluminum forks have "wear plates" or buttons so the aluminum is not what's wearing. Elite Racing Transmissions in the UK have made stronger steel forks for our application, and it's what I recommend if getting aftermarket forks. It all depends on how you intend on shifting the tranny during racing. If you're not railing on the tranny drag racing, stick with the stock forks and punch the roll pins in place.
