And the fact that the NV5600 is 2800-3300 to fix if there are issues. Plus the 3rd and 4th gear synchro issues, and the gear gap in them too.

fortunately i think outside of a quick shot out of Sioux Falls, SD at the end of next month i will not be anywhere near iowa this year. but plans do change. find me a good p-pump 12v at a decent price an i may hitch on out there. as for the cost of repair... i have no fear of taking things apart so long as the parts themselves dont cost an armload. since our exchange last night i have decided that 4500s dont hurt my feelings anymore and i will probably go that route unless the 6er just happens at the right time/price. mostly i just need the damn engine. i crave fabwork. all this paint stripping is driveing me nuts
looking forward to a bad air video
