6 speed scattershield installed !
Finally got my trans/diff out to add the hardened output shafts as well as install the quicktime C5 scattershield. Very tight fit,had to machine lower part of spacer/block plate to clear the allen bolts protruding from the back of my Tex twin clutch setup.Also,bolt this to your torque tube to verify clearance/grind as needed for the clutch bleeder,I found it tight as well.Perhaps the remote bleeder would be in order.Anyway,very happy to have it in and not worry about any safety issues with the clutch now .Thanks !

Yup,I feel better having one myself. I held off until now installing my output shafts so I could do it all at once.Sent my turbo housings back to Nick to get ported as well and installed my Jesels.It has been a busy couple days !

I think I got it from DTE when they did a special deal after they first came out.VERY tight fit,needs a little cleanup grinding on the clutch bleeder as I remember or possibly a remote line.Seemed like it was about $400 bucks,or so.If you cant find it PM me and I will dig through my file of receipts.

RPM can get you one of these.
I installed one of their C5 ones and did not have to do any grinding on the housing itself. There were some clearance issues on the back plate with the tex twin, none with the OZ700 I had on the car.
Bleeder did require a little tweeking but no grinding.
Not the easiet thing to fit in there but worth the work if you are concerned about the clutch coming through the floor.

You have to clearance the back plate that goes behind the flywheel.
Removal of the clutch assemble and the flywheel is necessary for installation.
Maybe Vince took a picture of what he did to clearance it? I have not actually done one myself with the twin, just know of three that were installed and all had to do the same thing.
