Ok so I just got my fox back on the road and I'm noticing a nice little whining noise in most of my gears also it increases with speed so to speak. I know my manual transmissions but I'm wondering do I need a rebuild or can I service it. By that I mean pull it drain it and put some good atf in there. Now I kind of want to do a rebuild seeing as its a 4cyl conversion and I bought post conversion so I'm not sure of the trans. So I know 68stanger does rebuilds but for how much and is it upgrade or stock peices. Lmk what you guys think

hope its a simple low fluid which i doubt. id think its the cluster gear or a bearing. it sounds like the same whine my old t5 did either way get it fixed or you can blow the trans like i did
