TSF trannies should be full syncro, even my TCF TR3B had a TSF number on the
trans.

Randall,
I have the Piggott book, but Iâ??ve also seen some other â??very officialâ??
type publication stating syncro trannies in TSF TR3bâ??s. I just checked my
tranny, which was pulled by the PO. It has a number stamped on it TSF 251. My
commission number is TSF 198L. Were tranny numbers running a little ahead like
engine numbers did? Also the top was pulled - and it has FOUR syncro rings!!!
Someday I will get it all back together and get to experience the syncro tranny.
TIA for your help,
Kerry
