Default T45 rebuild questions?

Ok, I had my trans bend 3-4 fork, and synchros are toast. So then I made a bad choice to buy a PRE-OWNED t45. Got installed yesterday, works good. ECCEPT no revese..... So now that's comming out..

I'm looking at rebuild kits, I want to build my t45 up. I have a guy who can build it, but I want it buttery smooth, my car is 360whp, 380tq..

What all do I need? Forks, synchros??? I want to start buying parts.

Try this, this might be a good start. You may want to balance what it will cost you in parts vice this company doing it for you.

I was just checking them out, Been looking at promotion, and hanlon... I basically have 1 gearbox with bad 3-4, and 1 with no reverse.. My mechanic has already started tearing into the old one, so I guess I need to call the Source or Hanlon.

So Im going to need???

Shouldn't your mech that youre using know what he needs?
Reverse is on another fork, the big T50 torx on the side is the mounting screw for 5 & R

I am dealing with Zak at http://www.thet45source.com/ and just bought a transmission from him. He is a great guy and easy to deal with. Read more here
