I've got a V8Q with a rebuilt tranny which has less than 3k miles on the
tranny after rebuild.  Parked it a few years ago because engine was
smoking, was running fine.  UFO's too.
Dropped close to 2 g's on parts for the tranny rebuild at the time.

Got two others too, one with 90k engine and dead tranny.  

Sold another spare V8Q that followed me home to a guy who only wanted the
diffs for some desert racer thing he was building.

If you want to go the swap route, lemme know.

Going to give Semple a call soon, I need the garage space.

BCNU,
Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes.
