Why the "quotation marks" in your response, 0396??? Insinuating something?
SpecialInt, I dont remember what we did to that gear box. I was the one who rebuilt it and it should be good to go as Welby never had a problem with it, however he didnt put many miles on it as you have posted. Other probs with his car kept it up on jackstands...not an uncommon thing.
I can tell you that I always go through every box, inspect and replace what ever needs replacing, and almost always use good used parts per my customers requests.
Since this box was built so long ago, it is well out of warranted, but if there was ever a problem with it I would still gladly deeply discount any repair work that would be needed. I would try to keep the cost to that of shipping only. I have not had to do this, ever, though, so I cant say how warranty work goes
As for value, it is worth what you can get for it. I do not know what the market is for one of my transmissions after it has been installed, and after 7 years. If I can help further, hit me up.
