Yes, it's an option, but not one worth considering. It's considerably more hassle than 1, bearing in mind that you'll need to remove the clutch in order to achieve it. Go for option 2, and take this opportunity to replace all 4 driveshaft boots. One less job for the future. > And if yes: Is there a gasket between the engine and the > gearbox? I don't think there was a gasket, no. You'd simply use gasket compound (high temp silicone) instead. -- Grunff
