The slave may be "only $150-$200", but the slave is internal and you have to drop the transmission to replace it....It's akin to a timing chain change on an Audi V8. The parts are about $300, but it costs you about $4,000 in labor as the engine engine/subframe has to be dropped in addition to having to remove the entire front timing cover. That is an easy 20-30 hour job for a $300 worth of parts.........

This is NOT a minor fix as the OP has stated and can easily be a weekend job with no guarantees it is actually the slave....

That's probably the reason the OP isn't getting any bites sadly as this car is extremely well put together

Why do you think you need to remove the timing cover? There are many ways to remove the trans, but this is a bit excessive. You can remove a T56 from an LS S-Chassis without removing the engine though.

TTT for a really clean car, good luck with the sale dude. There are some S-Chassis guys out there with money.... don't be scared off from these 16yo kids talking shit from their moms spare bedroom.
