The consensus these days seems to be that the 3.3 is mythical, it doesn't exist.

Mythical or not, if they're being made new... a 3.3 would be absolutely killer.

Oh yeah, that too if it could be made to work. If not, meh, I'm sure I can always yellowbox it or something.

Okay, getting as many sets as are wanted might prove to be a challenge, some visiting wreckers and pulling the gears will be needed.

This is a pretty big time and money investment, so perhaps if Ryan or someone wants to volunteer to take X amount of sets and redistribute that will allow us to lock something in.

Whatever the decision, I am willing to put in an 50% deposit to alleviate some of the the initial monetary investment.

Judging from the time it takes to change pumpkin in the pits, just pulling could be done in 20 minutes with the training you will get.
Those with 3.636 gears in your area might need to watch their rear ends...
