Hi, I got my ACT 2600 awhile ago and am getting ready to install it on my built 6-bolt. My question is, does anyone have any pics of the factory TOB vs the one that comes with the ACT? I searched and couldn't find any pics. I know they say the aftermarket one is metal sleeved, but mine looks like its metal as well as black plastic. I'm more of a visual learner anyways. Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you.


Also, I got rid of my old motor and clutch set-up awhile ago, so I can't compare with that. I wish I would have kept it, but like they say, hindsight is 20/20

The TOB with ACT is no longer metal sleeved. I had the same question when I just ordered mine. Can't remember who makes the TOB, but its no longer ACT, probably never was.
 
So it would be ok to use? I can't remember the name of who made them, it starts with an N...maybe nachi or something. It looks like the inner most part is metal though, is that bad?
 
Thanks...I just looked at my bearing and its Nachi, not NSK. It looks like its metal sleeved, so I'll go ahead and order the OEM one. Thanks for the clarification.
