    If it has a black box trans in it now I'd try that first, get a cheap clone single and test it out.


    My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
    Joe Camel never does that.

    Advice is free, it's the application that costs.

    For some reason, the pics wont attach for me. It's the same trans that is in the brochure pics. Mine is in really good shape. just gotta replace the brake bands.

    k. so I'm at the middle of the engine. Nearly done with the engine rebuild. I got all parts and stuff. just needs assembly. I was wondering though...... when i pulled out my crank shaft, My bearings were seized. i took a pry bar and pliers and pushed the outside race towards the casting, lubed it up and they spin just fine now. Should i replace these anyway? I want this engine to last a while...... They spin and act new now but...........

    I agree with dirtdobber. Definitely replace the bearings, as you said - you "want this engine to last a while"

    28-32ftlb is what I keep coming up with for other Rockwell engines. It's probably a safe bet yours is the same.
