You could be 'lucky' and just need a new set of botom end bearings and oil pump. I expect the debris from the gearbox got sucked straight up the oil pickup pipe...

this is the sort of thing that makes me want a true full flow oil filter not a bypass so the bearings and important bits only see properly filtered oil that wont help the pump tho..

Yes i moved to the darkside

Next engine lol

thats one half of the plan the other is getting a good full flow filter ive found most oil filters have internal springs/valves that will push oil will past if the filtration media becomes restrictive from ether crap stuck in it or just the full volume passing throw it
anyone have an idea on volume a mini pump can deliver up to say 7k?
i dont like the idea of destroying the small amount of engines that are about now days much rather build something that will last and not suffer from such events if hopefully

hi again what gear set would be reccomended i use my car every day and do 12000 miles a year have been told the sc sets wont cope with high milage ? who would reccomend what im planning on 150 bhp so any ideas ?

i might be missing the point but why wont a sc set do more or less miles than std gears? is it just poor quality? or the way there mesh being harsher on off vs progressive? id have thought modern tech should have sorted the meshing problems no? or is it to do with the on off on mesh giving vibrations to the bearings and stuff?

I think its to do with how they mesh but im not sire

I had a similar incident, went from 1st to 2nd. Can't imagine it does the rest of the engine any good.

i was once told not to put s short throw shifter on a worn box as its east to beat the box and grab two gears at once resulting in bad things lol dont know how true it is.. id have thought from second to 3rd might be possable as they are seprate hubs but couldent see how first to second could do what i have mensioned

I wouldn't worry about the gears not lasting being straight cut. I've heard that before, and it's complete rubbish.
