gearbox

[tribbster]

Hi guys ! wheres the best place for a recon gearbox ? what sort of price should i pay ?

[number 7]

These guys do seem to have a very good reputation, and I recall being told not too expensive, although not too close to you. www.gearboxman.co.uk/index.html

Nice looking 350 BTW - coincidently, my 400 is 3 numbers away from yours in the registration number sequence. Did yours come from the TVR Centre?

I agree very good... used em when I had a T5 box. They do recons on SD1 boxes.

I second them as well.
I had my 'box rebuilt there earlier this year, quick and efficient service and they don't rip you off. Top bloke is Bernie

well i bought a recon box from a bloke called T M transmisions , he sells on ebay and does a very good job all for £300 with your old box taken in exchange and lives coventry.

I got my gearbox rebuilt by Ken Tomlinson at N+T transmissions . They are in a little village called Over Whitacre, near Coleshill, Birmingham way. Ken designed the thing in the first place so he should know what he's doing. If memory serves, my total rebuild cost me the princely sum of £245 a couple of years ago. It now runs on Castrol Synthetic SMS oil and it's the smoothest, quietest, best shifting LT77 I've ever driven now.!! If you cannot find Ken, try e mailing BoostedLS1 through his profile, I think he is sure to have Kens number (I've lost it ) andy
