Scotty B has OKed doing a transmission rebuild clinic at his shop in VA. This can be planned from Feb on for the most part. This thread is intended to assemble a roster and to solidify a date. This would be for a weekend and would follow the same format as the previous clinics. See the links in my sig for the many clinics that I have already done.

Price: $300 plus parts, many used parts and new will be at whole sale.

Questions?

People without boxes to build are free to watch. I supply special tools, instruction, parts, noxious fumes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Would you also show how to convert a tail shifter to a side shifter? I think I have most if not all of the conversion pieces?

Absolutely. It is very easy. Also, if people want to goof with gear ratios it would be easy to do.

We might could make this a 2 day event if enough are interested in both my class and Evils class. Do one on Sat and one on Sun (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

This would also depend on Mikes schedule (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

Actually, my class is a two day event. All day Sat and most of Sun leaving me time to get home. We could do simultaneous stuff, though. I mean, it is your shop, after all.

I'm very interested. I bought a "static display" (71 w/ spun rod bearing) so (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I have no clue what shape the box is in.

I will always advise a look-see. If anyone brings a box that doesnt need a rebuild (not happened yet that I remember), pay for a seal kit, reseal the box, and take back your $300 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) No need to pay if you dont need to build. Right?

Absolutely! Those points will be redeemable for breathing-air that can be claimed at the event (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) For your contribution, I will make pee at no extra charge (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Any ideas on weekends that work, or ones that dont? Let me know. This will be much easier to plan since I am driving there.

I would be interested in attending to be the shop nuisance or gopher boy. Also give me an excuse to deliver parts to Scotty. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Generally speaking, people tend to need 2 bands, 2 sets of teeth, and seal kit (I can get for you) at the minimum. Often the lower intermediate plate bearing is needed. This is the typical. If you buy new vs used the prices vary a lot. If you buy used from me at/for the clinic I always cut you a price break (not looking to jack the price up once I have you in need). Feel free to contact me fro pricing and purchasing. You are welcome to buy now when you pay for your tuition. I have limited qty of used stuff and it will be getting less at time and clinics move on. I will try to replenish, but can not promise. Prices for new are changing constantly as well. I can get new for wholesale for ya, but on many parts I would recommend used as they are not inferior and are cheaper.

I could use it, and wish I could take advantage of the local venue... but with 2 little kids at home, I get limited "off-leash" time and I've already committed most of it.

In the 18 months that I've owned it, I've replaced shift bushings, clutch & flywheel, and trans fluid. So hopefully it'll hold out for a while.

Dates are open to suggestion. Perhaps it is better to continue suggesting dates that wont work?

Since Scotty's shop is only 6 hours away, I can do a few of these in smaller groups as time allows. Also, dont forget that I also teach one-on-one in my own garage if you wanna come up for a weekend and rebuild your box.
