Whats the typical cost of labor for a complete rebuild of a t-5. i'm ordering the kit so i'll need no parts, just labor. Just want a general idea so i don't get stiffed.

ive often thought about taking a class on it and rebuilding them as kind of a side job deal...

I got refered to him from another member on this board. i never had my trans rebuilt by him but I did pick up one that he had already rebuilt. this was about a month or two ago. hes cool guy, he seems to know his shit after talking to him. and yes the trans was good. [patriot]
