01E's 1 and 2 lock up if you look at them wrong.. One missed shift and good night. You basically should rebuild any used one before it goes into the car. I have paid 500 to 1000 for perfectly good 01Es that needed a rebuild shortly after going in. My rebuilt unit with updated syncros and shift collars is a rock star though. Why not keep that 01E and just rebuild it?

dude Ben, I've been just so jealous the past 6 months watching so much progress with your car while mine just sits waiting her operation. One day though. Cant WAIT to get a ride in the beast... once the trans/shifting issues are fixed.

If all goes well man you should get to ride in it on Monday.

Almost have the trans out, so thats good!

Backup trans is mated, so tomorrow after work the rest will go together.

Lets hope I don't run into any other issues!

Hey Jim, mainly because I have another one here that I was going to test out for Dan and if it's a good working unit, I'm just going to run it. I don't have the capital right now to swing rebuilding the other 01E the way it really needs to be.

EDIT: Also the transmission is a lot worse off than I anticipated. SO either way, it's all worked out.

It pulls really well once boost rolls on, though right now I am just on WG spring pressure and such. SO once I get my boost control working and tuned up, this thing is going to rip.

Not to mention, this 6spd has a LOT better gear ratios in comparison to the 016 which that alone makes the car feel a lot different.
