I would indeed be very interested, but I can't imagine what the shipping fares of a gearbox  could possibly be(I live in Paris, France) :x

Philmas - I shipped two engine blocks from Ohio to Amsterdam, garage door to garage door, for around $400. So a gearbox, which will be a fraction of the size and weight of two engines, should not need to be more than, say, $100-$150?
