T56 Delema. need rebuild or exchange quicky
well once again i waited til the last minute to get my t56 rebuilt. i scrambled to install my ls1/t56 combo in my 69 camaro only to find out 3rd gear is toast in my transmission. i pretty much walked away from the car 2 years ago. well i have a new interest in the car and i want to take it to a huge 3 day event this coming month. im not sure if it can be rebuilt and shipped back to me in time.
i contacted Tick and they said it would be about a 2 week turnaround and 5 days ground shipping both ways. my trans is still in the car and the car show/event is September 16/17/18
i thought about a new magnum unit but i dont want to spend that kind of cash and end up changing my drive shaft, shifter position, and trying to unload my t56 core.
does anyplace offer a reliable stage II rebuild on exchange? or will I run out of time sending it off to be rebuilt?

i ordered a complete stage II kit from The Gear Box. among other things i have new bearings, shims, clips, third gear, syncros, and seals coming also. I found a shop about 60 miles from my house that is going to do the rebuild.
I pulled the trans out about 30 minutes ago.
