I was talking to a fella from St Louis several years back that owns a Jaguar

place there and he claims that Hall has sent transmissions to him to be

rebuild before.  He has even said that he has rebuilt the racing ZF's

before.  Has anyone ever heard of this person?  The business is called Johns

Jagz.  Perhaps with the nonavailibility of parts any more, he no longer

repairs ZF's.  He also said he had heard of Roy before and knew that Roy was

the expert.
