SPEC twin disc install problems

Problem Solved, Talked to SPEC and figured it out.

You're not going to want to hear this, but you need to put the SPEC back in the box and buy something else. They're garbage. Bad enough to destroy the HD CSC units. And if you get lucky and it all fits, you can expect clutch life to be half of what you would expect. I got burned with one of those pieces of **** so I know how annoying it is to change, but you're lucky in that you haven't put it all back together yet.

Well I bought for super cheap (1/3 of the price of others) and better than what I have. I don't mind the couple hours to install it as I have a lift, transmission jack and all the tools.

There's a reason it's that cheap. Go ahead, but be prepared to replace it within 10k miles.

Boosted cars and cheap don't go together too well.

Call direct clutches, they based out of Australia. Or ATS triple carbon

IINM, the main reason it was so cheap is he bought it used (or at least second-hand).
