Looks good
Hi Jordan
I bought a NOS transmission a couple of years ago and it had been sprayed or dipped in cosmoline which had dried out. Took same sort of treatment soaking with degreaser then washing down with 160F hot water to get it clean.
You nailed the problem of cleaning hot water works much better than cold or even room temp.
How do all the bearing look? Was there any sign of water having been in the case, ie any pitting on the gears?
Enjoy your restoration reports.
Cheers Phil
PS I've painted the last couple of transmissions after assembly but before adding gear oil with Por15 black. Seems to help seal the gasket edges from leaking.
