tranny ngears.... headlight rim cork

[larry harding]

while chatting "a" trannys someone said thay had heard somewhere about using some kind of chevy gears in a ford tranny to get syncronisers. any one heared of this?

a while back i ordered the cork gasket for the headlight rim, they were so brittle they crumbled when i tried installing them. the supplier replaced them with better ones, but has any one come up with a better idea. maybe some small vinyl hose or foam material. cork gaskets are almost a thing of the past, there must be a better way.
