Personally, I would look at it as the clutch needs replacing soon anyway so you can either run it until it fails or go ahead and do it on your schedule. Hell, it would probably be a good time to put carbon blockers and synchros in the trans along with bronze fork pads and Liberty bearing kit while it's out, then you have a fresh build going back in that is stronger than new.
This is a good idea. I am planning on doing the clutch myself. I’m thinking rebuilding the trans may be above my ability. Is it difficult?
