Oh, I'll change my opinion in a heartbeat. I'm on my second transmission. It's a long story but I know exactly what I did to my first. Other experienced ears couldn't hear it but I know I found the limit. I took it out of service to keep it from wearing out of whack before getting around to replacing the input shaft bearing. Besides, I want to build a track-only trans. I digress.

If you gently lean on each of the syncros just for a moment with the clutch disengaged, engine idling, does the sound change dramatically?

Also, I've heard of TOB retaining pins falling out.

I'll listen for it with my headphones if you post a recording.
