I'm going to suggest you buy one from Darrin at BC Automotive.

You're going to be in it anyway... do it right.

That would be nice but most likely not in my price range.

I'd ask for a quote to be sure.

Finding a transmission should not be hard, but you need to be sure what you're getting.

Like I told you on the magnet fuzz is normal chucks or flakes keep on looking. The main difference between the marauder platform and all others is the length of the tail shaft. The CVPI and and marauder use a longer tail shaft. I'm not sure about the trucks but I believe the mustangs use the short tail shaft. I would talk to darrin about that if any whould know for sure I would think he would give him a call or send him a pm
