Re: [TR] quality synchros currently available?

["Greg Lemon" <glemon@neb.rr.com>]

The Roadster Factory claims to check theirs, and that they are higher 
quality, if you have a late GT6 they are really cheap.

As an aside when I rebuilt my tranny I used new synchro cups, I had trouble 
with 2nd gear, I ended up having a shop repair it, before I did that I took 
it apart myself and had looked at the 2nd gear synchro with a former BL 
mechanic and we agreed it was out of spec (after maybe 2500 miles).  He 
suggested I use the best of what came off before the rebuild, suggesting 
that 4th gear synchros didn't see much wear.
Anyway, that is what I had the (local, non specialist) tranny shop use in 
rebuilding the tranny, the guy thought I was crazy using the old part, 
apparently was not familiar with the sometimes poor quality of certain 
reproduction parts for old LBCs.
