Hey gang, Hopefully I will have my engine back in in the next couple weeks. I need to take the gearbox out to replace a seal and re-wire the overdrive. Would it be easier to re-attach the engine to the gearbox before putting it all back in the car? Seems like it would save a lot of wrestling trying to get the input shaft through the clutch disk. Any pointers? This is a 77 Spitfire chassis and tub. While I have the gearbox out, is there anything I should do in the way of overdrive servicing? Isn't there a filter? The gearbox and overdrive were rebuilt ~20K miles ago.
Also, I would like to make an inspection plate in the transmission tunnel cover to access the level checking hole. Any advise for this? I have one of the heavy rubbery plastic tunnels. Sheet of aluminum to cover the hole?
