Ya should have the parts by the weekend hopefully back together sat should give me enough time to break it in.

Mitco39 · 04-02-2014, 01:58 PM

Glad to hear man. Thats awesome news!

Glad to hear you found the problem before clutch fragments started flying through the bellhousing and cutting limbs. good luck with the tune!

snap went the strap...

Flywheel is fine as is the disk, but I am replacing the disk anyway since it is apart. S%t breaks, Shane at work has broke 4 clutches in 2 years with his neon, one ACT,another single disk I forget the brand, and broke a pressure plate and a disk twice on a clutch masters twin disk...

Hey Joepro, I like how you painted your engine/intake cover to match your car. I would paint mine but my car is platinum grey/silver already...

PS Don't forget to change the CSC, I think it gets extended onto the dirty part of the sleeve when the bell housing is pulled and the O-Ring picks up serious contamination.

I have a zspeed csc in there an It doesn't have a ton of miles on it, im gonna roll with it.

glad its nothing serious!

Joepro · 04-02-2014, 08:06 PM

Joe shipped it immediately, will be at the house tomorrow, should be back on the road before I know it, I left the tranny strapped to the jack so I can plop it right back in.

I'll take removing the hot side piping to drop the tranny over drop motor to install turbo manifolds.
