The Well Adjusted Annals : Stangkiller & EG install a clutch [Dialup: You *will* die]

I took a break from Grond's Reincarnation, and went over to Stangkiller's house in Orlando this weekend to help him install Well Adjusted's (Mike) Spec 3 clutch & flywheel, along with a new slave, pilot bearing, remote bleeder and drill mod.

Everything went pretty well except for a couple of minor snags that slowed us down a little. The video of Well Adjusted's MY Vert is awesome - his car sounds nasty!!! Not to be missed.

Here are the pics

Spec 3 clutch - what a monster!

New clutch slave, remote bleeder and drill mod

Getting the drivetrain out

LG Pro long tube headers - beautiful workmanship

And a RPM (Rodney) transmission

Made a parts run to get a new slide hammer - and saw the Space Shuttle launch!!!

WOW!!!

Pilot bearing was a bear to remove - we had the wrong sized tool. It came out eventually.

Stangkiller looking for his bunny suit...

New billet steel Spec flywheel installed

And clutch and pressure plate

Well Adjusted watching us work

But now he's lending a hand...

Drivetrain back in; just need to lock it all down

Attention Photochoppers : Please chop only the blonde kid....

Putting the final touches

Mike (Well Adjusted) seems happy (what a relief!)

His Vert is a beauty...

Time to take that bad boy for a shakedown ride
