I think it would be great idea !!

I have some experience with making technical video's in another industry, and my only advise is a lot of close-ups and high resolution..... with some of the parts of a valve body and transmission, if you're just doing the standard neighborhood video, it would be very hard for your viewers to see and understand what your message is.....

However, it would end up being a very, very large video..... probably have to distribute on dvd for a small cost. (I'd pay no problem)

Good Luck and I hope you keep us posted !

I would love to see you make a video.I would buy one. If all goes well I believe you could probably get your own show, maybe in between Trucks and Horsepower. Im thinking (Angelina Jolie) for the Pete's Transmission Girl/host..OK I may be getting to far ahead,,just put me down for a Yes...

Heck yes, I'd buy one.

I would love to rebuilt my trans myself, but feel inhibited by my lack of knowledge on the subject, and the apparent complexity of the task. Let me know when and how much.

Alan,
My intentions were damned good, but my available time to do it is bad.
My job currently requires 50-100 hours a week, and I am often far away from home. I normally travel 4-5 days a week.
It may happen, but not likely. Shame, because it is something I wanted to do.
