Clucth install
OK guys looking for the best and cheapest shop to install my clucth and flywheel. I already have the parts just needed them installed.
Also i needed them to install steel folks in my tranny while she out.
I am have problems with my car sticking in four gear at high rpms and my paddle stuck sometimes also. I have a new slave put in while it was under warranty and the paddle does stick as much but still does.
Let me know were to go. Thanks!

You should give him a call anyway.... I know they are usually backed up but for something like a quick clutch install he may be able to squeak you in. Worth a shot.

It is if you dont have the room and to much to take apart. i thought about doing it myself believe me, and it would be great to save the money. But never done one of this so it a little scary.
I like to think it's not that big a deal, i mean i did my own cam and that turned out great. But seen all that has to come out in a home garge and no lift or tranny jacks.

Talk to Larry over at seed inc told me 450 to to do the clucth (notbad at all), but have to sent tranny out to be inspected. Is there anyone that can do them both so i dont have to wait for a few days.

Little far for you a good 1.25 hours but mostly all I-294 s/b (but well worth it) as I would have to recommend John at Powerhouse Performance in Orland Park, IL, as you are guaranteed he the owner will do the install of the clutch himself and he has done hundreds of these on C5s 3 on my personal Z alone! 
Can't beat the customer service, workmanship, and pricing (when all combined into one package). John at Powerhouse has been my main mechanic for the 4 different C5s I have owned since 2000 and he has done one heck of a job on all of them and you always know what your getting and by whom, and he will stand behind his work 100%!
Call after 4:30 pm and ask for John, 708-342-0043, or after 8:45 a.m on Saturdays. Just picked my blown vette up from Powerhosue today as a matter of fact as they had to whip it into shape for the 2009 season and of course their customer service and workmanship was unsurpassable!
Also, Powerhouse works with RPM but also have a high perf. C5 tranny builder right around the corner from them who have done a ton of tranny work for Powerhosue, and should be able to service you (through Powerhouse) for your tranny issues no problem!

The good news is that you have alot of good choices; the bad news is decisions, decisions like this are a pain in the azz!
