Will, I don't call it a "detent" housing, the manufacturer does. That is right from the inventory list from Webster. I actually have split the Getrag case a few times but only to replace a few races, bearings, and diffs. I've never gone into the gears and I frankly have never had much of a desire to learn too much about tranny's before now. Hence, I am trying to get a quick education so that I can answer some of the many PMs and emails I am getting about whether or not you can use these gears for various applications and how it all goes together. Any input about parts availability and assembly would be appreciated.
Do the shift rails extend into it and have an arrangement of small rollers/ball bearings that prevents more than one from moving from the neutral position at a time? Those would be detents... I guess that a racing transmission should have parts like that out and accessible incase there's a problem with them, so it would be reasonable to make that change, but it would require racing specific shift rails, etc, which you need to understand and specifiy when telling people about these parts.

I am looking for a getrag, so if they have not all been spoken for what are you asking? I don't need a race ready one, even though it would be quite nice to have.
Give him my name. I'll be selling a lot of spare stuff as soon as I can inventory everything.
As for the rest of the goodies, I couldn't resist opening a few boxes. It was like Christmas. Check some of this stuff out:
4 complete sets of BRAND NEW COSWORTH Pistons (no 4 valve heads unfortunately, but I'm sure I can find buyers)
A set of pistons with "Superod" connecting rods already polished and balanced.
4 brand new, still in the box, .460 lift Intake, .420 lift exhaust Isky Cams
And for dessert, 3 Saenz Limited Slip Diffs!!!! :wow:. (Saenz makes the diffs for REAL Indy race cars) I am not kidding when I say these are worth $1000 each!
Does anyone know where I can get info for cosworth 16V heads?
