I would not open up the bellhousing. that would give the company room to refuse a warrenty if it failed. Watch for leaks in the first few months and if it leaks take it back.

sachs is a factory clutch

"Sachs" doesn't necessarily mean it's a factory OEM clutch. There are plently of high performance SACHS clutches out there. The term SACHS just refers to the style clutch it is ... either a SACHS or a LUK. I hope you got a performance clutch for 220, that's a lot of money for a OEM clutch.

That's enough for me! ;) I've been considering Phoenix Reman Trans for my beater 1G for a while now. They seem like they know what they're doing and test everything out before it ships. While I don't know anyone who's bought from them before, from what I've seen elsewhere, I would buy from them myself if I had to.

If what they say is true on the website it ought to be a pretty good trans.

they sealed my bellhousing with rtv instead of anaerobic sealant. now it leaks. other than that, they're great.
