I went ahead and overnighted the 3rd gear set to me so hopefully I will see it tomorrow morning.
I was told this transmission was a GSR when I purchased the original motor and transmission but I bought everything secondhand, since I was building it anyway, and with the case painted black I couldn't even verify which case code it actually was. I'm happy to say there are honest people out there still. I counted teeth on the final drive the ring gear was 66 teeth and countershaft was 15 making it a 4.4 final drive. Third gear on the mainshaft is 25 teeth and on the countershaft is 34 teeth making it a 1.36 and after comparing that to a ratio chart I'm happy to say its a GSR transmission.
Also after a close inspection of the rest of the transmission all of the seals and bearings are in excellent condition so I will only be replacing a few parts and cleaning everything else before reassembly. I'm thinking the transmission will be going back in Friday night.
