Scotty B in the Richmond, VA area has agreed to host a transmission rebuild clinic at his shop April 14-15. These clinics are great fun and a great way to rebuild your transmission, with supervision, and readily available parts.

The skinny:

- Free to attend for observers.
- $300 for builders. Build as many as you can in the two days. Price includes SS hardware.
- I have and provide the special tools needed. All you need are regular tools.
- I have parts for sale to save you $$.
- We can do food and drink if y'all kick in

Please click on the links in my signature to see how other clinics have turned out (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Please post if you are attending, what you are needing, and if you are a spectator or a builder.

Below is a list that I will update periodically update. If you are not on it and would like to be, make sure I know.

- BillH1963 - Builder, 2 boxes, paid
- Bulitt - one day builder, paid

Don't worry, I have the keys to scotty's place and I promise to do my best impersonation of scotty. I will be wearing the long hair wig, wearing one of scotty's mesh shirts with the vinyl number on it and doing my very best Foghorn Leghorn voice, which, as you may or may not know, is exactly how scotty talks.

Unless the date gets changed and my services are not required. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

so do those dates need to be switched? let us know if you need to change due to the conflict, but

I can make it up that weekend, probably coming up with Bill H.

I have one for sure- needs new seals, and just has a slight sync issue at some RPMS from 1-2nd, so probably syncros? all other gears seem perfect- we will see- also have a source for a core- local guy just finished a Mcclaren he was going to use the 901, went with the 915 and says i can HAVE the 901. so a possible parts or rebuild, not sure yet.

Check out the Hershey thread, the Dr has reserved some spots at the meet so I bet he's looking at last years calendar (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Yes, I must be looking at the old calendar. I thought Hershey was the last weekend in April (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Damnit. I will change the date.

Alright, adjust your party planning. I have moved it up to the 14-15 April!

For seal kits and new parts I would urge people to contact either GPR or Eric Shea as these are our friends (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

For used parts, I am the guy.

Doc,

I am in. One for sure, - seals and #2 syncros probably otherwise straight forward, the other is a complete unknown. -

Phil

Also, the one I would like to do a n alternate 4th/5th lower rpm on highway I will review the threads but open to recommendations.
