You know, the guy that invented the integral bellhousing should be fed his own testicles, once or twice and the rest of the engineering staff would fall right in line..

OK put the Beater up on my lift and pulled the trans, I discovered the new clutch ( installed by someone else prior to my owning it) had the face of it ripped off and it wallpapered the inside of the bellhousing. While I was there, I took the time to check out the Tremec 3650 , 5 speed as well. It was in great shape for 185K miles, so I replaced some seals and installed a new Sachs clutch, pilot bearing and throwout bearing. I checked it for function, and put it all back together.

Better have an extra couple bedrooms. Those 2 cali boys are going to pack themselves in boxes and off to Florida. Maybe they are going to team up with Kohr.

Edit: Oh crap! This was supposed to be a PM and secret.
