Guess who's out of work again?

Ron,
I'll keep my eye out for you during my travels in  
Cincy/Dayton for good machinist opportunities..........
Although, I may have a tranny for your to rebuild on the 16V,  
i.e. if I can't get the damn linkage issues worked out in it.
What about 6th gear conversions?
Good luck with the job hunt and see you at Cincy!
Rob / Cincinnati

Yup.  Me.  Got laid off today due to 'bad business conditions.'  Hard to sell machining when the
owners keep turning work down!  (Try to get back into Rolls Royce or Honeywell after wasting their
time and money sending someone to see our shop, then submitting a 'best and final' offer with 20%
higher part cost and 3x fixed, up-front costs!)  Oh well...

I could rebuild one tranny a day at $200/ea plus parts, and make a decent living...

Pray for me folks!

Ron
