Here's a piece of free advice:

If you remove the alternator to make R&R of LT headers easier, upon reassembly, be certain you reinstall the belt.

Hello friends,

I have converted both my clutch and rear diff install guide to PDF and have uploaded it to my Comcast account's webpage so hopefully it should last a while.

Enjoy!

Thanks! I used these instructions a couple of years ago when I had a slave fail, so I did a complete clutch change. Took me a while, but I got it right the first time. No problems in two years and I felt really one with my car. There is nothing I can't fix myself.

Default Here we go....

This weekend I will be bringing my boy (12, trying to get him into cars instead of video games.) along for a few projects...

Install A&A Supercharger kit
Remove fuel tank to install dual pump set up for boost.
Since the drivetrane will be down, time for a clutch install. C6 Z clutch
Then to wrap it up with the c6 shifter install.

Kind of

Will be in North Fort Worth if you want to help lol
