hy

so i have a gearbox that been rebuild some time ago ( 4 years) but never landed in a mini. would use it on the turbo now.... howeverrrrr....... it got pretty dirty inside from standing around ( without protection *blush* )

so here is the question... would i get away with putting it complete in the dishwasher and the prime all bearings back again with oil? or rip it apart again and rebuild it again.

you can do anything if you set your mind to it...
i rather blow it up winning than keep it together losing.

finish date set for project 1... march 2018

I'd say tear it apart, however I can rebuild gearboxes blindfolded after my recent spate of bad luck!

Its worth the rebuild I think you don't want to have to pull the engine apart again?

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
