Syncromesh is the best stuff out there for manual trannies (who'da thunk GM would've done something right?). As for where to get it done...I'm a big fan of independent tranny shops. All the ones I've ever seen have done great work. Last time my friend took a car to a dealership for non-OEM work he got totally screwed. He was trying to get rocker arms replaced with some 1.7:1 roller rockers (Ford's stock are stamped steel 1.6:1). After the car got back the valvetrain was chattering and when we pulled the valve covers we discovered USED (probably disgarded) stamped steel 1.6:1 rockers. They kept his $250 new ones and stuck some old throw away rockers on there. Needless to say, lawsuits ensued.
