I would definitely pay that and buy a case or 2 of Corona and a lime for that work. But.....that is my second choice. My first choice is for you to build me a trans. I love your idea above of you rebuilding the internals of your '89 internals from the trans with a bad case, then swapping them into my case and re-use my valvebody and governor and what not. Let me know if you can make that happen and what I will owe you for it all. As long as I can have the tranny by late January or early February at the latest that idea is perfect. I lose my garage space early March and I want to make sure the engine and trans is complete and even tested and tuned a little before then. I'd like to put the new trans in, then bolt in the new shortblock, then assemble the heads and all after the shortblock is in the car. Just the way I like to do it. I am running the 3.07 rear gear. My car came with 2.59's, I bought a used 3.07 centersection and swapped it in. Broke the VSS when removing it so I bought a new VSS, flipped it over, and installed it with the correct new speedo driven gear to make my speedometer right with the 3.07's. Also, my governor is new so you can eliminate that governor gear from your parts list. I'm sure it isn't any money but no sense in you buying one for me. |
