Clutch swap question?
I'm in the process of tearing into the drive train to replace my slave cylinder. I figured I might as well do the clutch since I'm in that far. My problem is I have LT headers. Is there enough room to remove the bell housing and clutch etc, with LT's in place. It doesn't appear to be enough room but I thought there might be a trick to it. Thanks.

I recently completed a clutch swap myself with long tube headers. I removed them from the heads and pulled them aside. You remove the inspection plate and can swap both the clutch and flywheel through there.

They certainly don't add to the joy of this task but I did the same, disconnected and let them hang. I also pulled the FAST.

Just unbolt the headers from the heads and let them hang and DO NOT
remove the bell housing, just take the inspection cover off and you can remove everything including the flywheel through the bottom.
