Default T-56 Rebuilds

I need suggestions on a good builder of Lt1 t56's? Tranzillas are out the question. The 2nd gear syncro is shot in mine, and I would like to have it rebuilt to handle a solid roller, Track 1 headed 383 with a 200 shot. Thanks guys!

It's not that hard- I did my first a year ago- lots of product support for the updated parts. I downloaded a manual and went to town

Chris, How much on labor do you think you saved by doing it yourself? And did you go through the whole thing or just a couple wear items?

There is always a "first time". Go for it. Get a book or manual and dive in. kind of like the old saying "measure twice, cut once". Read everything twice, double check your parts and go for it. The worst that can happen is you have to ask someone for advice.
