Leaking MN6
So, the trans is leaking. 
This is a manual with 175,000 miles on it. Looks like it's the case halves. I checked the filler plugs - and that isn't it. It's to the point now that I am putting in almost a quart of trans fluid every time I change the engine oil at 7500 miles.
What do I want: A recommendation on a shop that I can take a bare transmission to to have it resealed. The syncros and gears are all still great - but since the transmission is out - it should at least be looked at.
I talked to a shop here in Tracy, and after watching the guy look at his computer for 10 minutes - it was pretty obvious he had no clue.
Considering the effort to get the thing in or out - I want the transmission fixed right the first time.
I'll be doing the clutch with the LS7 setup while it's out. (175k on the original clutch
)
