What year is your new engine from? You might still have to be careful with missed shifts if your engine is stock but pre 89/90 I think. Now that you have a spare you can fix 2nd gear and turn it into a torque monster...

And welcome FNG, perhaps an introduction is in order. Been riding long, did you do the swap yourself?
