If you are struggling I have several 550 engines either ready dismantled or for parts. I warn you now, I am pretty disorganised so may need reminding and won't be what you'd call fast at digging bits out, especially honda stuff as I'm not that eager to part with it compared to say my bmw parts that I'm sick of the sight of. I do know there is a complete 550 gearbox that functions really nicely but has a crack in the crank cases after the engine dropped a valve. I put a differet head on after this and ran like that for several years so know the gearbox functions well.

HI,
                 I have both shafts with good bearings, just been taken from a 550 K3 77 plate.
PM me with an offer !!

Thanks everyone, you guys are kings! 

Good call Oddjob, I'll have a extra-long stare at them, assuming I don't just replace both shafts anyway.  I was quite surprised that there were only two sets of gears with obvious signs of damage, I would have expected such a shower of debris to cause more fouling.

paul G:
Ecks,

               I should have pointed out the shafts are complete with all the gears and I do have the retaining clip that you were after.

Regards,
