I'm in. Do you want PayPal for the tuition? I'd rather do it now and get it out of the way. Plus it makes it more difficult for other plans to intercede! If we can pay now, is there a PayPal account?

And is it best to estimate parts costs and pay now to get your lowest prices, refundable if not needed.

I would like to watch, but if I can source a trans and H gearset by that time, I'd like to rebuild.

Paypal charges too much in fees. Personal checks are fine, or MO. The $740 is best price until the parts are gone, then it becomes what ever I can get new replacements for, or if I can source more good used. For payment info, PM me and I will get you on the list and assemble a parts package. Yes, I do refund parts prices if not needed.

In the past, I have had people pull their gear stacks (those that had them out to do so) and take pics so I could tell them what they needed. Instructions for pulling the stack are in my rebuild link in my sig.

I think I will come watch. My tranny doesn't need rebuilding. I just need to swap my nose cone. I do have a core tranny to donate (minus nose cone) output hubs are missing.

Dr. Evil, did you get your flight taken care of? PM me if there is a problem with the "miles guy", I can get you here on Southwest for 0$

There is really a place called Disco Bay?

Do they have a big mirrored ball in the town square?

Wow, I was thinking all white, but the gear oil wouldn't blend. I think I like it. Maybe I'll find a big BOOM box at the thrift store for my Bee Gee's cassette.

I have taken care of the Evil flight for Mr & Mrs Evil. They will fly into Oakland from Pittsburgh Friday? before the Evil Event. Dr. Evil will confirm dates with me. Does the Dr. need an Evil ride to the Disco? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Mike, I already rebuilt my tranny at McMarks clinic, but will be putting it in a 3.2-6 conversion, what re-gearing would you suggest? or would it be okay with stock gears? If I don't do the clinic, I might come and watch. John

The typical thing people like with bigger engines is a taller 5th gear for lower RPM in the form of a flipped H or HB gear set. You can get more exotic, but this it the typical, easy thing. If you just want to switch a gear in a box we already built, just bring it by at no charge. The work is negligible and not worthy of a fee.
