  • $300 for a g series?

    Well the pullapart scrapped my egt before i could get to it, so I wasnt able to get the trans out of it. I called a junkyard that said they had one and they want 300 bucks for it. Seemed a little excessive for a junkyard trans to me. What do you guys think?

    That's not toooooo far fetched for a junkyard trans, but it's still higher then I'd be willing to pay for one

    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

      that's about standard. Especially for a trans that is sort of sought after because people blow them up being stupid...

          Some junkyards are totally ridiculous about price, others are dirt cheap. I miss Harry's $50 transmission day
