Once again, thanks for posting!
I kinda think the OEM one cut and welded is the right way to go over the KPower one. I'm going to look at making some bushings to fix the issue with the KPower piece; seems you'd want to cut the rim off off or remove the stock plastic inserts and make bronze bushings that slide in from the inside that also takes up the extra space between the selector rod and what it is meant to attach to.
