That sounds about right for a Borg Warner box with no gear replacements. I
rebuilt my Warner box a few years back for $330 in parts (from Mike Kerr)
and that included a new 5th gear with I recall being $105 back then. I did
the labor myself
The Servo boxes are much more expensive to do because the synchro rings are
price and the synchro sleeves and hubs usually need replacing as well.

Subject: Parts for 5 speed tranny rebuild
To List,
Here's a little info to pass along, but I'm sure most already know it. I
was having my tranny rebuilt. My shop guy says parts look just like a 240Z,
which he rebuilds a few of those. So he orders the 240z kit. It comes with
gaskets, bearings, and synchros. Only thing missing he says is the 5th gear
synchro (said mine was in great shape and didn't need it), 2 bearings (240z
kit comes with 4, ours need 6, he said the bearings separately are $10 and
$11), a couple of "needle bearings" (or something like that, I wasn't paying
too much attention) and all the gears (said mine were in great shape). So,
to replace all the gaskets, all the synchros (except 5th), and all the
bearings (he purchased the ones not in the 240z kit separately) was about
$200 in parts. Total including labor was about $400.
That sounds like a great deal to me. Is it? If it is a great deal and
someone wants the info, just let me know.
Also, what kind of fluid should I run in it?
