Tachyon's Kitchen!



Gears and synchros looked great!




Here's how clean the inside of it was, Paul figured it must have had very frequent fluid changes - I agree. Even the speedo gear was nice and new looking not all brittle and yellow like another trans we had taken apart had earlier.

According to craigslist/forums/other for sale ads, just about every trans is a 'shep stage 3'. I believe about 5% of them - usually can't prove it with any sort of paperwork, just 'the dude i bought it from said the dude he bought it from said...' Right.
