Would you be interested in side job of doing my clutch? I’m looking at new one soon and got a decent deal on Southbend FE SS. I don’t have lift access or tranny jack or the skills. I’ll do pretty much anything but have never done a clutch before. Kinda wanted to learn, though.

I wouldn’t mind doing it on an Audi although I haven’t dropped a longi tranny yet, but I also have garage issues. We can talk to Sonny and see if we can use the garage in West Newton unless he wants the side job.

I talked to him a while back and he said he may be able to rent the space but at that point didn’t have the time to do it. That may have changed; I don’t know. I didn’t want to take it on by myself. Have the Bentley and a few DIY from some guys a trust with longitudinals, but I didn’t want my first time to be by myself.

Thanks! It was custom made by a company in Canada, they made a small production run of these and make them for customers. It’s a very decent piece, not as nice as a cast piece that I’d prefer, but that wasn’t released yet when I got it, plus I got a good deal on it and a new bigger TB 🙂

Decided to get a big port head. Sold the intake manifold. Searching for a new one. Getting 1000cc injectors, converting to e85 hopefully. Full polyeurethane motor mounts finally to rattle my teefs. Maybe re-doing my IC piping. Will get more picts this weekend.
