Service
Guys,
I was drifting thru the Tech section in C5 reading about clutches...A suberb story where Textralia rep locks on a member's issue and offers above and beyond...just great service.... check it out.
Would be decent if just some folks provided this kind of service.

Should I drive it hard for awhile, with some higher rpm launches?
Pete seems to think that the pressure plate has been warped by the installation. So, he is sending me a new pressure plate.
Hi Jeff,
I just caught this thread and I’ve been thinking a little more about the situation your in;
Given the fact that the clutch was sold second hand to you without the original flywheel, rebalanced, in and out of two cars, I’m actually starting to feel a little uncomfortable about the whole thing and we would certainly not want to put our name behind it as it currently stands.
Do me a favor! Give us a week to organize a complete new system for you with the billet flywheel and ship it direct to A&A Corvette for the installation in their shop at our expense.
Having been to A&A Corvette a number of times now and witnessed their workmanship, I would feel so much more comfortable with the thought that you have been squared away correctly by the right people.
Shoot me an email and we'll line it up.
