It's not too daunting. It does take a while to do and you will have to get inventive and make some of your own tooling in order to compress all of the belleville springs. Getting the Center carrier out of the housing and then back into the housing was the worst. I had to tap it in and out the whole distance. If your F-drum is fine it would be super easy and fast to just replace the failed o-ring and bearing and then just re-shim and skip the whole rebuild. This is something I would consider if I were to repair another 5HP24.

Cool garage signature. I used to have a SR20det powered 240sx. It was the perfect car for chasing down corvettes and porsches on a circuit. Sadly, I sold it to a young man when I was downsizing my fleet. Wish I had not let that one go. Also, that SR20det was dead on reliable. Never an issue.

I've been thinking that an SR powered Z32 might be my next project.
