Yeah, I understand. You know what, I hate and love my yellow one. Okay, remember I talked to you before a while ago and so I decided to go with 4.44 (cost effective). Dang I have no luck on the differential, my first swap 4.44 is not successful. After putting 500miles, I have still front and rear whining noises are real loud now!!! *sigh* I have warranty on the parts but not on the labor. Now I'm drained but would two 4.44 tranny swaps equal to one 4.11 5mt swap??

I like modding my cars anytime. Do you have 4.44 parts? I have the front 4.44 ring and pinion gears. If you have the rears and other parts I need to convert my XT6 to 4.44, I am down. PM me if you do!

I know we beat this to death before in PMs. I want to go forward but haven't ordered the parts necessary. Hoping I run into someone that has the parts I can buy off of them.

BIG change in labor prices for the mt swaps. Now that I have my kit made I will be able to significantly reduce labor hours

The EG33 is a non-interference engine.

The only damage would be caused if both the intake and exhaust valves opened at the same time. The valves will never touch the piston though.

in your case Earthworm, this would require the scissor gears on the cams to have somehow missaligned which would mean there would be serious head damage in the first place. So, no there are no worries of interference with valves.
