Final trans assembly happened yesterday. New syncros, new bearings and we replaced all the iffy dog teeth and fist gear slider (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Engine looks great. Do you need a shift knob. I have one that isn't pretty but its functional. Also a repro that is new but not identical to orig.

Looks awesome, Mike. Congratulations on a great journey, almost exactly three years, right? It's certainly inspiration for my attempt, which I need, as mine is just beginning....
