So I've come to the conclusion that I might have to let my spare trans go. Money will be going elsewhere and I was thinking there might be interest here to buy this from me.
It was in my balt and I replaced it with a new unit because 2nd gear started to grind. Everything else is perfectly fine with it and it had 3 fluid changes before I swapped it out.
I was going to send it in to get 2nd gear synchro replaced and possibly swap in 4.45 gears to use a race trans but I haven't had the time or money yet to tear into it. I'd hate to have it just sit around and go to waste.
Anyone interested?

Indeed 
Doing it yourself is always cheapest - That's what I was gonna do.
I'm not 100% sure on how much a shop would charge but if you brought it to them and they didn't have to uninstall and reinstall it, I would say $400 or less in parts and labor.

I'm trying to get an accurate quote for you.
Every time I look I get quotes ranging from $200-$900. I don't trust any of it so I am going to call a few places and get a real person to tell me a price lol.
