Default well...

My car's sittin in the driveway again gotta change the starter,t/o bearing, bellhousing(cracked at the bottom starter bolt hole that's why I now have to buy a new starter),and unfortunately I have to get another t-5. Some how some way I broke the main housing of the trans. talkin about somebody who was pissed off when he(me)saw that.I am dead serious about this,the only luck I have(if I have any at all) is bad luck

It is probably all the pulling and installing that has screwed with the throw out bearing and starter holes. t5 housings are not really expensive, $145 on one website I have seen. I don't have it on this comp but I can post it in the morning if you don't have a place. I guess its time to go j/y shopping. Just be careful and don't pull parts off of one of your good cars in your yard lol.
