That looks like one heck of a job. Good luck.

this swap is so cool they read it in kelvin!

Got the gearbox back together. Seems to work okay. I can shift into all gears and everything seems to spin I can now do your 5th gear swaps.

Nice work!

If you changed gear stacks or cases you will need to set the preload on everything.

Where did this guy come from??????

I know that is supposed to be done but I don't have the tools to do this so I'm gonna take my chances. If I grenade the gearbox I'll do it right with the next one and remember I was warned

If anyone is curious, the procedure Spencer speaks of is on pg.14 of this document.:

Love this guy's site. Its mostly for the o2o gearboxes, but wonderful info for the average Joe.

thought i saw that preloading info on 02a at bottom of home page

Progress has slowed down a little. I got the gearbox mess cleaned up so I could keep moving. Holes now cut in the firewall for the master cylinder and the booster bracket is in. I also fabbed up the drive by wire pedal setup
