I like the idea of swapping the sprockets, especially if I really don’t have anything else that would be required to make that setup work.

What do you think about the shavings I found in the trans that I want to reinstall?

My first thought is, not a big deal probably some casting material, but then again I am paranoid now so… Trouble is I don’t have the time or cash to be excessively paranoid and just replace everything…
