[DML] Re: Transmission parts....

[Marc A Levy <malevy@xxxx>]

A few years back I researched this. I found a few places in the states
that import renault parts from Europe (France most of the time.)

I cant find any of the information I collected, but I remember speaking
to a number of Renault part suppliers to track them down. The Alpine
collectors are a good source because I think most of the parts are the
same.

When I was all done with my research, I found that the cost for the 2
parts I needed were high enough that it would be cheaper to just buy a
whole new trans in the states.

You may also want to call Rob Grady. After I was all done with my
research, I found that he had sources for the parts. The prices were
about the same as I got myself.


If you dont mind me asking, why do you need transmission parts? I only
ask because I wonder if you found some weaknesses in the trans with your
Northstar conversion. If this is the case, you should call Don at
Delorean Motor Center. I understand he had "beefed up" the transmission
in the buick (grand national) conversion that he did. The Grand
National motor makes 300+ HP, similar to the Northstar.
