I showed up unannounced and let Thomas know what had happened. He already knew about the driveshaft/pinion incident and as I suspected already knew what the problem was. He said " let's put it in the fixture and take a look at it." I was shocked...I had every intention of just dropping the transmission off and returning home. Watching Thomas was like observing a watch maker...I believe he could build these with his eyes closed. He took the time to show me every piece that had been modified and the reason for it...very detailed work inside this case for sure. Before leaving he also showed me many other one off parts he had built for others as well as for himself...the man is an artist.
I can't thank Thomas enough for his time...I know full well he had plenty of other work to do this morning. Great guy to talk with and very sharp with these race vehicles. I'll get this back in the car shortly and head somewhere Saturday for some long awaited results.  |
So, what was wrong with the trans?
