[6pack] tranny swap

[Foster, Stan (HP IT)]

Agree 100%. The schedule I posted earlier assumes that you spend about 4 hours
a day, which is just about as long as I can mentally and physically work on
the TR before I start to get tired and start doing stupid things. Take your
time, bag, label and store anything that you remove, make a diagram of the
loom connections etc. The tranny with OD is heavy, re-insertion is harder than
removal, you could easily spend 45 mins just getting it to engage with the
clutch if this is your first time.

Life is short. Take your time and do other stuff you have meant to do, along
the way.

You can change a head gasket and replace clutch disc, at the track in under
one hour, but not because you want to.
