Default i just ordered...

well, i happened to get some money gathered up for my transmission rebuild. figured since i gotta pull the motor, might as well get the tranny right, too. so here's what i ordered

Stage III monster clutch prem. package
Tick performance adj master cylinder
Tick performance remote bleeder
Tick performance stage II rebuild
and an MGW shifter.

can't wait to get it all in and back together. it'll feel like a completely different transmission i think.

well got the transmission and motor out today. found another problem. the bell housing has a hole about 2 to 2 1/2 inches and a crack in it. not sure what happened, but it looks like its been there a while. i'll get pictures up monday. i'm in the process of moving so my camera cord is packed up right now. the previous owners really didn't take good care of this car.

but on a better note, I got my shifter in yesterday. MGW ships fast. I got it 3 days after ordering.
