    I'm looking for at least 1 trans. Either will work but I need a short shaft. I need one that works not a core.

    I'm looking for it to be some what local in Illinois ....I want to pick up in person.

    Thanks.

    Brian.

    Thanks. You're a little far away. But I've been looking on Craig's list locally and all listed are cores. And one guy that's lists rebuilt but they all are painted rustolium black.

    Yea,my trans builder did the first batch of my cores,painted black,and I had to tell him “From now on,leave them raw.”
