Removed transmission questions.
Hey guys,
I recently managed to remove my transmission from the block. Now that it’s finally out, I want to clean this thing up. I have a ton of engine degreaser in my shed. Is that okay to use in the inside if this thing? What should I try to avoid cleaning around?
Also, I plan on putting in this new clutch kit that I bought awhile ago and resurfacing my flywheel. What are some other things I shiuld check/replace while it’s out?
Thanks.

Re: Removed transmission questions.
yes its ok. just don't get degreaser "inside" the engine. i.e. intake/exhaust ports.
soak engine and trans in degreaser and spray away, iv done it hundreds of times
make sure to check clutch engagement if using non oem type clutch.
I would consider painting the motor and trans after cleaning. it helps to spot leaks with clean painted surfaces. and it looks good.
grease up the throwout bearing

Pressure washers are great if you have one for the bellhousing/exterior.
