I have a 915 tranny from Carquip. A company based in Colorado. I started with a "good used" tranny like JMD. BUT, the guy opened the case up and washed the inside with some kind of degreaser, and did not oil anything after that. It sat in my basement for a year before I had time to work with it. Yes it was a total waste. Carquip could not save anything but the output flanges, but still helped with cost on core charges ($1500 bucks). If I would have gone with a "real shop" to begin with I would have saved the initial $1000 for original purchase...live and learn.

The sales rep that helped me is Eric. He is a member on these and many other Porsche forums. They know there stuff with Porsche's. Do a search on here for Carquip, and you should get some info. (yes they have G50's)
