Not sure, would have to get it boxed and weighed. Less than a million dollars, that much I can assure you.

Lemme know, please. I'm always down to stash another 6spd. I'm hoping to eventually find someone to build it or at least fab an oil cooler.
I can buy 2-3 6spds for what I paid for a 6 LOL

Will do. Need to get it unbolted etc. Also curious to weigh it vs the built 5spd I got. Hopefully there is some weight savings. I thought I read 25lbs diff between 5 and 6 speeds.

I literally bench press my transmissions on. The 6 is heavier and bulkier. I'm also curious to know by how much.
if it's substantial, I may have to swap again LOL

Picked up this BR north south bar or cross member... whatever its called...used from board member EvoooB. Shaves ~6lbs and looks pretty.

Mentions it does not fit with stock under-tray but I'm thinking I'll modify it or get a proper tray built at some point.

I also would like to get BR billet dif mounts and tubular mustache bar for a almost ~20lbs in weight shaved. Then I can install the rear-end and get it out of the way.

Also got the T/C out.

I just dropped $3200 on a short block. I don't think I could afford your trans, though this would be the PERFECT time.

Removed trans and got motor on the stand. Also pulled remaining AC bracket and timing cover. Waiting on parts and figuring out where I want to go next on this.

I think I'm going to pull the head...

Also got most of the big stuff out from under the dash. And got that mat on the firewall which was a bit of a pain in the ***.
