So I just pulled my transmission out of my 70 (side shifter with a 1.8), I replaced my flywheel due to work teeth, got the car back together and the car sounded great for 5 minutes and then developed a light grinding noise. It's coming from the transmission area and most noticeable when it's idling. Anyone had similar issues?

Starter motor gear not retracting fully? As said before, likely the reason why it wore out the first time.
Look for magnesium shavings at the access hole at the bottom of the transmission. If they are present, then it's a clearance issue with the tranny itself. If not, I'd suspect the starter. |
