FC3S Murray's never ending build.

Honestly I think your worries are unfounded with pulling the stat gear. If I were in your shoes I would probably just leave it in and have persons keeping in eye on the engine while you take off the rear. If you're still unsure about it you can always pull the stat gear and go from there. I would honestly be more concerned of moving the stat gear first because you already have the eccentric shaft there to help guide it straight up. If you have everything already torqued down and not shifting I would just let the eccentric shaft and gear guide you up and out without nudging anything.

Just my thoughts though. But then again, I would just strip the entire engine down and rebuild... but you do what you gotta do.

I am gonna leave the stat gear on and will remove it after the iron is off to replace the o-ring and rear main seal.

I just can't justify a total tear down for this bull shit break. I am not gonna fork out more cash on this pig when this should be an easy BUT percise procedure. Waste of time in my opinion to rebuild unless you just want practice. I would like to do it BUT I get maybe an HOUR of free time every two days. Maybe when I get some extra leave from work.

Yeah, I understand. I'm just anal. I tore down my just rebuilt engine because I couldn't physically remember placing all the fire seals in the engine and I had one left off. Took me an hour to tear it down and rebuild after that. But if you can just pull it and look and fix what you gotta fix do it.
