Getrag 265 Rebuild Rant

Big news (for me at least) is I got my car back! The trans that I purchased through ebay from "Socalbrit5" feels fantastic. I put about 30 miles on my car yesterday - as it's basically the first time I've really gotten to drive Sahara with her new suspension (CN), 16" Alpinas, and 5-speed. Not to mention the triple webers sound and feel fantastic!!!

I don't know what to do with the non-functional 5-speed but I think I'm going to keep it for a while for "evidence." I'm going to have to have a talk with the shop that put it in as I have a bad feeling their shop "runner" damaged it moving the car around...

Cheers
James

PS: Good thing the A/C works well on this car btw - it was 95 yesterday.

Next up is tuning/jetting the Webers using my A/F meter and setting the timing curves in my 123Tune distributor.

Hello James - where are you located? My Webbers are not in yet (but the Getrag finally went in yesterday!)
