Well, getting things going with Terry Haines, he wants a $500 deposit with the tranny for parts and the such, with a $400 flat rate labor charge. Of course there will probly be a little more $ once it's done...
I'm getting some (maybe all?) of the synchros replaced and his "slick shift" forks. I would have gone for the "koated kogbox", but I don't want to run the $ too tight in case the Quaife can't be covered.
Speaking of it, he said he can also do up a claim on the Quaife w/o any of the original paperwork, but it will take longer. I have no prob waiting more to save like $600 or however much a Quaife costs.
Now I'm just waiting for my tax return (this week hopefully) so I can ship this mofo off.
According to the guy that's working on the SVT, it's safe in an enclosed storage area, so I'm not too worried...
