Well here is the problem, my third gear is grinding horribly when I drive, at first I just shifted really slowly into third, it helped a little, now I skip 3rd gear all the time, the car drives fine but I don't know how good this is for the tranny.

There is a tranny shop used by the local Ford dealers, I just don't have the name for it. It'b been a while, but just before I bought my SVT, the previous owner had the 3rd gear issue, lucky for me that it got rebuilt before I took owndership, lucky for him that he had a full extended warranty. I wish I knew where this place is, because, despite the little I drive my SVT, I don't drive it easy, and especially with extra HP now, I am very happy to say that the transmission is holding up.

Now, when I had the LSD installed, it was done through TAG Motorsport in Oakville. They shopped the tranny out to a place in Oakville. Maybe you want to contact them and see if they can refer you to the tranny shop.

As far as the rest of the stuff you are looking to do, the LSD, clutch and flywheel, if you can afford it, is one of those might as well situations. You can do it all at once, pay a big sum one time, rather than 3 large sums to do each job one at a time.
