Well, maybe but I think you will find that the money you spend to get it fixed after the first guy messed it up and the new money you will pay someone who may able to do it correctly, will probably add up to be the same cost as a top machine shop like J and M.

This sounds like you need to replace the triple gear pins and bushings because they wear out together. Could also be transmission problems you are not yet aware of. Here’s my suggestion ...

Tim, I think to just make wildly unsubstantiated statements without any evidence of the accusation, that is dangerous folly. Tim, if you have proof of what you are saying ,then post it.

D9C76270-74CD-4B64-9202-EE47693E470F.jpeg I’m not an expert on engine rebuilds. I only know it would be foolish not to listen to the advice of J and M Machine. They are one of the best engine rebuilders in the country. They have done 5 T engines for me. Here are some shots of them working on one of...

J and M Machine has done 3 Early Model T engines for me. A top tier machine shop with all the cutting edge equipment and tools. They won’t cut corners even if you ask them to.
