Rob, Others will probably want more details on the engine or transmission before they can answer your question with accuracy, but I will say having been an (aircraft) mechanic, might be worth looking at a newer transmission from the same series and having an adaptor plate made to fit the new transmission to the existing engine, if what the mechanics are saying is true. However with the popularity of yanmars, its hard for me to imagine that the failing transmission couldn't be fixed somehow especially if the problem doesn't require a complete rebuild. Sounds like a job the mechanics may just not want to take on. My .02. Perhaps others have more direction.
