My indy put a used transmission in and was not happy with it and let me know they would be working with their supplier to get another unit and that the supplier might send it out for a rebuild. My indy inspected the IMS (2006 replacement engine with larger bearing) and from what he could tell, looked okay, no leaking or areas looking like a problem. However, we discussed whether it made sense to replace the IMS since they already have the transmission out and it would be about 2 1.2 hours additional labor.
We could go LN dual bearing with 75K mile life at $800 or Pedro's lubrication kit at $1500. The car has 210K miles... engine has 175K.....
what would you do? 1. do nothing with IMS 2. Go LN 3. Go lubrication kit.
Thanks,
Barry

Based on my engine number per my indy....This opens up possibilities for the IMS bearing replacement. Since I have 175K miles on the existing engine and bearing, looks like we did pretty good to get this far and since we are getting a replacement or rebuilt transmission, I can go ahead with replacing the IMS bearing.
