Dope's word doc would be ideal. It's very detailed. I also got some useful info from this article on a rear pumpkin swap.

Yeah, I would have linked to that page but 1) it's not a clutch swap and 2) I haven't finished it yet so it's only a pictorial. I will send Dope's tutorial out.

Thanks Patches. I am still revising the document and will be posting it up on my webspace within about 2 weeks now (so I'm slow, sue me).

Thanks guys... still not sure if I'm gonna have to rip my clutch back out. The vibe has gone away, but I'd like to know how to do it if I have to.

Yes, the jack stands suck, but I am going to buy a Kwicklift or 4 Post Lift before I do a clutch swap. I think I might redo the entire drivetrain and upgrade the gears.

7-year old thread revival!

I've seen it floating around but unfortunately I personally do not have a copy or link.

I remember this website! I couldn't remember url or where I originally saw it. It is now going into my bookmarks as a helpful tool.
