Hey guys,
I selling my 96 sport and buying a 98.5 CSVT this week! The clutch is toast and I need to get ahold of Terry Haines to upgrade my trans. Stazi said that it would be stupid to put in a new clutch and not upgrade my trans while it is apart... money is tight, but I think he is right and so I will go ahead with it. I searched the forum and I saw an email address, but now I don't know where I saw it. I don't even know if it was a recent email. Does he have a Username on CEG? Anyways, any info on Terry would be greatly appreciated... such as his location??? Thanks for your help.
Jeff

Thanks for the info, that is the email I had found and lost! Where is Terry located though? Isn't it expensive to ship a trans? Also, I guess I will ask Terry about prices, but for those of you who have delt with Terry, feel free to post what you had Terry do to you trans and how much it cost. I don't know what to expect and I don't even know what should be upgraded since I am replacing me clutch anyways. I would like to go the cheapest safe route!
Thanks,
Jeff

i had my trans done by him. i shipped it to him. from los angeles to MI it was just under $100 via fed ex. his return shipping is included in his cost (he uses DHL, who cracked my bell housing!  ) anywho, i had him install the quaife, slick shifter forks, shift tower and since i was doing the 3L he did the zetec final drive ratio too. iirc that was all i had done. i think it was around $1700 but i cant remember for sure. it sure as hell was badass though when it came back. he was a great guy to deal with and give you as much attention to you on the phone as you need.

Great! Thanks for the info. I am glad he is in Michigan... hopefully close to me so I can drop it off and get it back ASAP!

Even better! Dearborn is like 15 minutes away from my house... 8 minutes away once my new CSVT is on the road! ... $400 for the labor seems pretty reasonable to me.
Thanks!
