I don't think there's any particular problem with rotating the engine in reverse while it's off, but on most manual transmissions that I'm aware of, first and reverse ratios are pretty similar, so likely not much to be gained.

> I don't think there's any particular problem with rotating the engine in reverse while it's off I agree, in theory it should be fine. Driving a lap around the African continent is not the place to test that theory. I just looked it up, my Jeep has the NSG 370 6 speed box behind the old 3.8ltr V6. 1st is 4.46 Reverse is 4.06
