Mechanical / Re: Toasted Clutch
« Last post by b_hill_86 on May 11, 2024, 03:20:27 PM »I’ve run, and heard good things from others about, LuK kits. They have 10.5 and 11” versions. I purchased a replacement flywheel from Firebird Central because I felt with the info they provided I was confident it would fit. I didn’t feel the same with buying elsewhere in the same or lower price range. The LuK kits do come with a TO bearing that has a plastic (for lack of knowing the actual material) portion where the clutch fork rides. I did opt to buy an all metal one but I also had a few issues with the cheaper ones. I think if I had to get in there again I’d try the LuK version. I read a lot online and only ever found people saying not to use it, not any actual reports of failures. For what it’s worth.
Get yourself a trans jack, an adapter for a floor Jack or make one. It can be done without one but it’s much easier especially if you’re working by yourself.
Also just my PSA, lift and secure the car at multiple points with quality jack stands or wood blocks. These cars will kill you if you fall.

I think at this point all of the electrical connections are done 
I am getting a grasp on the vacuum crap. Still looking for a few parts for that. Fuel lines hooked up. Refinished the gas pedal and got a new cable installed. Need to place another order for some more parts, probably wont be in until the end of the week. I am planning on going to the AACA convention towards the end of the week so I wont get much accomplished.
