What does he mean by "there is a lot of brass in places it shouldn't be" ???

The brass is part of the syncro assemblies, the syncros are inside the transmission and in the oil ... the only oil source in the transmission by the way ... the oil circulates inside the ENTIRE transmission, the only place that it should not be is on the outside of the transmission ?????


running up my post count some more .
