Whoa! Haha, neat!! Well, I've got a bellhousing lined up for it. Either which way, I'll be doing it outside somewhere on the concrete. I don't know anyone with a shop around here, so I would have to turn down your offer to help--I don't wanna make anyone but myself roll around in the cold rain for a day or two!
But if you've got a tranny jack I could borrow for a weekend, circumstances pending, I would be inclined to come down and pick it up! Nothing makes me more nervous than a cast iron housed transmission rocking back and forth above my head on a standard floor jack. Not cause it'll injure me, but the fall has the potential to crack that case ;-)
I'm going to talk to the seller tonight and see if he'll sell it under the clause that I fix it first. Give him a deposit, bring it to my place, and pay him if it lives up to promises after I road test it.
Anyway though, I'll keep you posted! Good know there's someone knowledgeable on the island!
