My tranny rebuild saab story

Ok here's the short of it...I blew the tranny in my 88 SPG in January (on the coldest day of the year, of course). So I pulled the tranny out of my parts car, got it apart, and found that it had been rebuilt fairly recently. I ordered a 5th gear shift fork, a 1st/2nd shift fork, and the pair of pinion bearings. After a week and a half of getting the wrong parts, and taking them back to the dealer (Portland Saab, Falmouth, Maine), I finally got the parts I wanted. So I got the old bearings out and the new ones in, and I was doing the last bit of clean up on my tranny case and I looked close inside.......and I found a crack in it. It is a decent crack, inside the case where the pinion housing bolts up. So now, I am in search of a transmission case... :( If there is anyone near me who has just the case that they are willing to part w/, I would be forever greatful.
Thanks,
Seph
