I say keep looking.Well, just talked on the phone with the guy for about an hour. Was very thorough and honest, and mentioned every bolt he changed and scratch he noticed.
The one thing he told me to not be surprised by when I show up, is that it sometimes grinds a bit going to second. He said this is common with the synchros in the 6 speed. I believe he was being honest and we are at 16.5 right now. I told him I'd get back to him tomorrow with a yes or no. Leaning toward yes right now
It normally grinds on second because the (most) manual drivers skips first gear when at a stop light and starts on 2nd to sprint forward.
