Gearbox? I'd pull it, last thing you want it to lose the rest of the gear and sent it for a ride around your engine.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

is that a gear tooth, or part of the synchro teeth?
if its the synchro i would leave it as is there is still another 100 teeth (or how ever many there is) to take up the power

Depends which gear it is. If it is first, then live with it. If it's any other gear, then the rest of the teeth will follow eventually.

Matt what a great tool you have... :) not sure about hunting for problems but atleast you know you have to pull the engine.

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

It's only a synchro tooth, and most likely done on a keen shift. I'd live with it.

Well Sprocket, I'm thinking about doing just that, just to see, the gear box seems ok, i didn't even know it was broken. I have more testing to do before i pull it out and rebuild the engine and box. But yes i know i should pull it out, just any testing on the old engine is miles saved off the new one as it's done so well.

here is the link to the one i got...

Hi chaps, here is a little up date, thought i would do some check on the old girl, and found more teeth in the oil so i think it might now be time to pull the engine out, really pleased i waited as had 5 to 6 months more use on the car and parts as been doing much setting up ect, it's done well. The trouble is i can only see one gear box as an option left :(!!
