I was approached by a Canadian with a 911 in need of a trans rebuild. He was hoping that I was going to have a clinic in Canada soon, but this is was not likely as I am way too busy. However, I have always offered up to let people come for one on one sessions in my garage on a weekend. Today the guy and his son came down and after 6 hours we had a nice rebuilt gear box (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

This is still a possibility for others that I wish more people would take me up on.

That a physician would devote six hours of precious weekend free time to a one on one transmission rebuild for a stranger speaks volumes for the character of this guy.

I realize that this humble man may not need accolades, but the 914 community is fortunate to have members like him.

Translation:

HAPPY ENDING!

What happens between consenting adults behind closed garage doors is between them and the amount paid. I'm sure when if google'd "Dr. Evil Tranny Clinic" those who respond and willing to pay can't all be about transmissions. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)

Any chance you'd do another SoCal clinic? I'd be your first paying customer. I need to find some H gears for 5th...want to flip 4th for 3rd, 3rd for 4th, and leave 1st and 2nd stock for my LS1-powered car.

Hey other SoCalers, any interest?

No time in the near future. All of my off time will be for moving and paternity leave. Maybe some time after June.

I've got a good core I need to do....I'd prefer to have help.

So I would be in for that. Couldn't be until springtime next year though.
