Yes, it is definitely a crap shoot on used trannies. What the heck those West Coast Core ones are, is anybody's guess. For one thing, they say they are 094 vanagon trannies. 094's are FIVE speeds. What your 91 Carat has is an 091/1. that's and incredible price for a 5 speed. Too cheap for a overhauled 4 speed. Too expensive for a junkyard one. I'd pass on that deal, but it would be a good idea for someone to figure out if they are 5 speeds. Al Brase
